KarenKraft Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Giants and Dodgers. Giants are a pretty good ball club. Sometimes, however, when they are not doing well, they beat the other team over the head with the baseball bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarenKraft Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 At 85, Vin Scully can still bring it better than any other baseball broadcaster. He always says amusing things. Sometimes he says amusing things unintentionally: "Guerrero is from Cuba. Now de la Rosa, from the first base side of the rubber...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG 150 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I want to know where he was getting his statistics from? I really think that he pulled those numbers out of his ass to look smart. Stupid kid. Get out there and play baseball. Players are making a lot more money than Scientists. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenKraft Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 I want to know where he was getting his statistics from? I really think that he pulled those numbers out of his ass to look smart. Stupid kid. Get out there and play baseball. Players are making a lot more money than Scientists. ??? The kid says “like 555 feet of poly / cotton thread.” But annoying, wonky people like your humble correspondent here, will tell you that there actually is 450 feet of poly/cotton finishing yarn in a regulation MLB “Official” baseball. For those of us who care, here are the actual details: There are 369 yards of yarn in a baseball. That’s 1,107 feet. Kid’s only 107 feet off, but he has his proportions all wrong: There are three layers of wool that are wound around the core of a baseball: first, 121 yards of four-ply gray yarn; second, 45 yards of three-ply white; and the third, 53 yards of three-ply gray. A layer of 150 yards of fine poly/cotton finishing yarn is wrapped around the ball to protect the wool yarn and hold it in place. His little video was informative, albeit not really accurate. And then again, he wasn’t exactly measuring as he went, and he had to finish his little Book Sales Job before his mom got home and found him using her 4” J.A. Henckels paring knife to fuck around with a baseball. But she wouldn’t be all that pissed, seeing as how he needs to do something to get rid of the 4,000 hard cover copies of his book which have already turned the family 2-car garage into a no-car garage.
