Hanging curve, had to put it out of the park, something Yankee fans are painfully aware of...

I assume you mean playing stickball with it? Do kids even play stickball anymore?

My Grandmother had a great Italian saying regarding Hubris, starting off with something along the lines of "Nu sprungeel..." When translated it meant, "Don't spit up into the sky because it will come back and hit you in the face!"

Judging by the results of this series, I guess the Yankees should have been playing more stickball when they were kids!!

You have brought back some great childhood memories for me, Roccus. playing stickball in the streets of Queens. If I remember correctly, a ball hit halfway between two sewer caps was a double, one over the farthest sewer cap was a home run!! During those days I had a pretty wicked curve ball throwing that Pensey Pinkie!!! Anyone else remember those?
