About Me
- Giantfan9
- I have been a Giants fan for as long as I can remember. I have had Giants Regular Season Tickets for 25 years (since 1985) and Spring Training Season Tickets since the "new" Scottsdale Stadium opened in 1992. I have gone to Spring Training every year, except the strike year, since 1987. I go to A LOT of Giants games. I also go to Arizona for the Arizona Fall League every October/November. I figure I attended about 125-130 games in calendar year 2008......almost all of them involving Giants players. Baseball is a great game.....Giants' baseball is the best part of a great game!

I don't know Dr B. I didn't know it was in his arsenal.
It's not an easy pitch to learn, I guess. It's fun to imagine hitters trying to cope with Sanchez with a good knuckle curve added to his arsenal.
It's funny....I was never a pitcher......but when I was messing around with pitches, the knuckle curve was always the easiest for me to get the biggest break on.
I stopped pitching about age 10, after I nailed that kid in the nuts with a fastball.
It's funny in hindsight!
