GTG: 100 Push-ups

Baseball:

I threw short and long toss for about 45 minutes this afternoon, trying to beat the rain. While practicing some pitching, I threw the nastiest curve ball I've ever thrown, heading straight for the batter and braking late, down and away, over the plate. I sort of caught me off guard.

I've been messing around, on and off, with a submarine delivery, since I'm not that tall and lack velocity. This delivery style gives the pitcher a lot of movement, but he has to be sure to keep his pitches down around the knees. Leave them up in the zone and they're bound to head the other way in a hurry.

Then I headed to the cages to work on my swing.
