KarateKen Posted March 31 Posted March 31 Kind of crazy. As long as they still launch the home runs, I assume it will stay legal. That's where the money is.
sensei8 Posted April 1 Author Posted April 1 According to MLB Rule 3.02… “The bat shall be a smooth, round stick not more than 2.61 inches in diameter at the thickest part and not more than 42 inches in length. The bat shall be one piece of solid wood.” Hence, the torpedo bat is perfectly legal. Yankee Aaron Judge does NOT use a torpedo bat because he favors a traditional bat. Even with a traditional bat he launched 5 HR’s over the weekend. Twins, Devil Rays, and Orioles have experimented with the torpedo bat over spring training. **Proof is on the floor!!!
sensei8 Posted April 15 Author Posted April 15 What can I say?? A’s are moving to Sin city. While that might’ve been a reason to smile at one time. That smile has turned into more of a frown. Yes, the season has just started but the A’s are back in familiar territory…last place. The A’s are indeed coming to Las Vegas. I like that idea for only one reason…my Yankees play against the A’s during the season and yours truly will be there in the A’s brand new stadium cheering for my Yankees. Poor A’s have to play their home games at a AAA stadium. Kind of a hint, I suppose. A MLB team playing in a AAA stadium, kind of a fitting tribute by its fans. The media room is a makeshift tent and the clubhouses are beyond the outfield wall. Not what a MLB team looks forward to experience…and the season has just started…it’ll be a very long 162 games. Latest mud in their face occurred just the other day during a A’s home game against the Mets when a Mets player, Jose Siri was injured by his own foul ball in the leg in the 2nd inning. Siri needed a ride to medical because where the A’s play during home games, medical is not a short walk at all. Here’s the mud in the face for the A’s…the medical cart broke down—it either broke down or it ran out of gas. Either way, the grounds crew had to push the broken down cart off the field. The A’s had to bring out a second cart to help Siri to medical. When you need an ambulance, the one thing you hope never happens is that your ride to the hospital doesn’t breakdown or run out of gas. Hopefully for A’s fans that this latest unfortunate mishap is the end for the last place A’s in a series of Keystone Cops antics…but…it’s the A’s. GO YANKEES!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
