First home may have been off Warren Spahn. Like the higher pitching mound? Or that they only used a handful of balls all game, so they had little to no life and were scuffed as hell...or doubleheaders in wool uniforms.

Didn't the scuffing make the ball move more? Thought Gaylord Perry made a career of that and vaseline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically Scuff it throw it and see what happens. When that got taken away pitchers weren’t able to reproduce the movement on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have no fear. It will be revived when we lose in the tournament. Never mind we were picked last in the conference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mohl certainly cooled his seat off quite a bit in the last week. Kudos to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
