BaseBall Questions and Answers


What do you contemplate of the Barry Bonds homerun story chase?

Question:Do you think it should be handle the same as adjectives other records? or Do you imagine baseball should act as if zilch happened when he does break it? Honor it but don't groove it?
Answers:


I think that Bonds diary chase is a joke.

Can you believe how many homers Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle or Hank Aaron could own hit if THEY were juiced?

Bonds will never enjoy the respect that those 3 men have.
Why?
Because he hasn't EARNED it and doesn't DESERVE it.

"Celebrate" and "honor" are words we use to honor achievement by athletes...not cheaters.

Just my 2 cents.

***
it should have an *asterisk subsequent to it.


*enhanced with HGH
First of adjectives I'm a Dodger fan. It's be instilled in me to LOATHE Barry Bonds. I'm not gonna achieve into the steroids thing because everyone know about it. But it does steal a tremendous amount of talent to hit that many homeruns and hold that many walk in the amount of time he have accomplished it. Should it be honored...unfortunatly yes. Untill Barry admit to taking steroids (Which will never hapen) it should go down surrounded by all the transcription books. Should the game be stopped..that's up to where on earth it happens. If it happen in San Fran it would be a shame if they didn't do something for him. Anywhere else..who care.
It still is very star-studded. Do you know how many family hit 300, year after year. You have to hit the globe about one out of three at bat. Just to make contact and hit that oodles home runs is amazing, even if he did take steroids. He may not be a wonderful human person, but the man deserves the record.
I don't even suggest they should honor it. I can't believe this whole item is still going on, it's a sham. Bud Selig and MLB should of cut this ages ago! 10 more and a cheater breaks a narrative sad terrible situation.

What the people above don't realize is that although it is a great spectacular act, Hank Aaron accomplished this deed drug free and why should a person who cheats give somebody a lift that away from him?
Records are meant to be broken. It doesn't enunciate who, what, or how. If he breaks it, I say well brought-up for him, he deserves it he worked hard to receive there. If this be 10 years ago we probably wouldn't be having adjectives this steroid debates because not a soul cared rear then nearly steroids or not, because no one know or paid attention.

Baseball doesn't own to do anything, they have that right. But out of respect of the hobby they should at least honor it.

I newly wonder why all these Bonds haters believe he doesn't deserve it blah blah...and all that crap. People hold taken steroids and not even broken 500 or 600 homers. Players have tested positive for steroids and however fingers still point to Bonds. Other players confess to using them but people still point their fingers at Bonds. Regardless of whether he took them or not, what he have done and will do should be honored and respected, so what if he took steroids, they have be around for over 80 years and only presently do we look down upon people who are a short time ago accused of taking them.
i have a sneaking suspicion that he should be honored.. im not a fan but it is something crazy that he is doing.... roids or not, in attendance have be others to use that stuff and are nowhere near him......do u assume every player who uses gets caught?? drugs hold always be around!!! do u think nearby are some players in the board room of fame who used things to aid them???? honor it and each being will make here own decision roughly him!!
He's a disgrace, and the record should enjoy the biggest asterisk beside of it.
It's baseball.
Sure it is hard to hit a baseball but when you are juiced up it is immensely easy to obtain bat speed which generates the homeruns. No he should not deserve the copy because he did admit to taking steroids.
I love it. It is so grief-stricken how so many relations hate on Barry. I wonder how oodles homers Barry has hit stale of pitchers who were taking roids. I'm sure if we adjectives really knew the truth going on for just how frequent guys were takin roids, that number would be huge. Get over it population, this was the steroid era. Barry may hold taken roids, but he was crackin homers past its sell-by date pitchers who were doing the exact same article. if you don't believe that, you're kidding yourself. Open your eyes. Quit hatin.



2 types of fastballs?How should they be thrown?

Question:Fast Fastball and a Hard fastball (heavy). My coach throws a fastball at me about 80 but its vastly heavy when I corner it. Normal fastball is just breakneck. Hows this possible?
Answers:


The heavy fastball is a sinker, customarily thrown with singular two seams catching nouns currents. This pitch is held with the index and middle fingers all along the "narrow" seams of the orb.

The fastest pitch is a 4-seam fastball with the index and middle fingers across the round cog of the seams near the tips of the fingers on the seams to get hold of a tighter spin on the pitch. This pitch has 4 seam catching the air currents holding the orb higher.

Some telephone call this a rising fastball----physics does not allow the ball to really rise, but because it does not sink as quick it looks as if the ball is rising as it approaches the plate.
There are heaps fastballs, from the four-seamer and two-seamer, to the cut, split finger and sinking fastball.

I assume the 'heavy' fastball is a sinker (the speed is consistant), while the 'fast' fastball is likely a four-seamer.
It go a little into the physics of pitching.

The cross (4)-seamer stays straight and keep the same momentum and is the pure POWER pitch. The two-seamer have an aerodynamic tail that forces the ball to tail AND sink at alike time. This movement slows the momentum, but makes the pitch harder to hit because of the closing second explosion.



Who is a better home run hitter Babe, Hank, Joshua Gibson or Bonds?

Question:Joshua Gibson played for Homestead Grays (Negro League) and never had a accidental to play in MLB but hit almost 800 home runs.
Answers:


I can solitary comment on who I've seen play. Bonds is the best I've see. I think historically, it would be Josh Gibson.
He once hit 81 HRs within a season, and hit the only rational ball out of Yankee Stadium. Had he played surrounded by the MLB, he would have broken adjectives kinds of documentation. He also was a consistent hitter, hitting over .400 twice, and bat over .370 for his career. His lone drawback was he be a teammate of the greatest pitcher of the time, Satchel Paige, so he didn't face him.
I would individually say Hank Aaron not singular because he hit the most, but also because he did it on pure talent. No steriods, no corked bat, and horrible technoligy in the bat and balls. He hit adjectives of his home runs on pure strength and talent. As for Josh Gibson, if the fences are shorter contained by the Negro League then not him. If they are indistinguishable distance, then he's probably the best.
its proabbly bonds or joshua cuz ur right going on for joushua so its a really close call.
Bonds for sure...He still hitting the globe out of the park
definetely not bonds but its a close call between these other fellas. I would own to say Babe, because his homeruns expected something more than a run.
Joshua Gibson all the track man. I remember he actually hit over 800 homers.
Its clearly Bonds.
Man i option i had a arbitrary to see josh gibson. For him to hit that many homers within the negro leagues, when everyone KNEW how fitting he was solitary proves that he many hold done the same piece in the majors.

Too desperate the majors werent ready for him.
ego say babe ruth.ballparks be bigger then and he wasnt help by any drugs,hot dogs and beer thats it for the babe
We don't have anything implicit complete stats for the Negro Leagues, but Josh Gibson probably did hit more HR's than any other player in North American baseball history. We also don't hold stats for the Cuban league, so it could be that someone there have been more prolific than have either Aaron or Gibson.

I'm surprised that you didn't include Sadaharu Oh contained by your list. For the collection that we do have, Oh be the most prolific HR hitter in professional baseball, beside 868 round trippers.

I refuse to acknowledge any of the HR's that Bonds have hit since the end of the '98 season. Every one of them since next has be illegally chemically enhanced.
not bonds---he's juiced!
The BABE, he did it contained by an era where the ballparks be so big, don't know if any of you have be to Yankee Stadium but where the center corral fence be back contained by Babe's day wan an massive hit.
Hank Aaron
Alright, I guarantee half of these empire don't even know who Josh Gibson WAS (probably just agreeing beside the most obvious answer for some points). It's apparently him, but not only did he set a phenomenal overall home run diary, people forget that he hit over 70 home runs contained by one season long before Mark McGwire or Barry Bonds be even conceived. Not to mention the absence of high-performance equipment and the questionable honesty of HGH users surrounded by the major league...

However, I feel that two markedly important name were omitted from this short account. Many don't remember or have never realize that Ted Williams and Willie Mays lost many years to the leading leagues due to their service warfare for our country.

Ted hit 521 homers in his lifetime, which be at the time third behind solely Babe Ruth and Jimmie Foxx. And it doesn't stop there. Hollywood screenwriters would hold a difficult time believing that "The Kid" hit a home run in his final at-bat to cessation a script that wrote itself.

"The Say Hey Kid" Willie Mays hit 660 homers in his lifetime, and he be recently quoted as saw that he believes he could have hit all right over 800 homers in his lifetime if he hadn't fought overseas for years.

Not to mention home runs are completely overrated. Ted hit an incredible .406, the later player to do so in the trunk leagues Nowadays, even beside the advanced equipment, no one can even come close to such a indicate!
Josh Gibson was the best the fence were not much shorter than Major league and some of the best pitchers surrounded by baseball at that time were contained by the Negroe League racism kept these great players from showing their talent. True baseball people know the truth Gibson be mythical. Jackie Robinson was the first not the best. Josh, Bonds, Mays ,Aaron,Ruth and Mantle.
i'd read out hank aaron,
but sadaharu oh should be included in this topic (japanese baseball hit over 800)
Hank
I regard as Josh Gibson in the Negro Leagues and Babe Ruth contained by the Major Leagues.



What is the punishment for steaking at a core league baseball winter sport?

Question:because what im thinking about doing is getting my fifteen minutes of eminence by streaking at a baseball game.

but i am preparing...
since im already more agile than most associates on the planet im gonna see how long i can keep away from the collateral guards.
im jogging 5 miles a hours of daylight now at the gym. and working on my sprinting. i want to turn down as the most famous streaker surrounded by history.

anyone have advocate?
Answers:


You could get charged next to indecent exposure. In some communities it is a felony, in others a misdemeanor.

Are you sure you want to do this?
You should seize a life. You will be arrested and frontage multiple charges, jail time and big fines PLUS you will be disqualified from that ballpark for life. And bar people who know you individually, no one is going to see you or know you as the "streaker at that one ballgame." If you want 15 minutes of fame audition for as copious reality shows as you can.
What if they classify you as a sexually orient person? That resources you have to check contained by with the statute for a specified length of time (5-10 years usually but can be life) plus your name go on a list and you own to disclose the charge on job applications. If may also propose geting a job and not self allowed to apply for the job.
Check your local laws/laws of the nouns where the stadium is. If it's a felony you may be charged beside indecent exposure. If charged with indecent exposure and prosecuted the prosecuter may ask the decide to have you register as a sex criminal. 1 night surrounded by jail is typical for citizens running onto the field.
You will draw from hit in the ball with a bat.
The final streaker that tried it here- at a minor league park no less be arrested, charged with indecent exposure, public bane of your existence time served, $500 dollar fine for each offense, lifetime prevention from the park, and just for giggle labled a sexual deviant, put on the registered sex offenders document and has 10 years probation. Still nouns like a right idea? Maybe you would look suitable on the registered offenders website. lmao
seize a life, and don't subject anyone to seeing you running around in the buff. A ballgame shouldn't have events that will basis nightmares.
Benefits outweigh the negatives? What benefits? The 15 minutes of celebrity for 40 thousand fans doesn't come across like much. Many box stations refuse to show the guy streaking because it encourage others to try to get their moment. What if you draw from caught within second of disrobing? You just receive in trouble, and your glorified dreams of a becoming a streaker turn into nought more than a legal problem.

If it is true that you may enjoy to register as a sex offender, your duration will be made very difficult. Many states requirements that prevent you from living effective schools and parks if you are a sex guilty party. Any employer that does a background check will see the offense and propose the job to a different competitor. People in your neighborhood will be capable of identify you on your state's sex offender listings, and they won't realize that adjectives you did was streak at a baseball hobby.

I wanted to narrate you to go ahead and do it, but I can't. It's not worth it. It may seem to be like it is immediately, but when you begin to behave close to an adult, you will hold to deal beside the consequences.
Local laws apply, including trespassing and indecency.

You do follow that you will not be seen on camera and that you will not be mentioned any on TV or on the radio. You do understand that you will be doing nil more than embarrassing yourself big time. You do know that whatever you are charged next to will be a part of your unwavering police record, and that that will impair your competency to find a job, any employment, for the rest of your life. You do deduce that organizations are getting stricter something like this type of garbage and that could be debarred from the stadium for years to come for this one drunken act.

You do recognize that this is the single most stupid thing that you can possibly do.

Here's my proposal - Stay sober, stay smart and DON"T DO IT!!!!!!!!!!...
