Another immortal announcer for the Yankees is The Scooter, Phil Rizzuto, former player turned announcer who stopped calling play by play in the late 80's or early 90's.

Along with Mel Allen, I'd have to add in "the old redhead", Red Barber. Both he and Mel are in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

The circle around home plate generally measures 26 feet in diameter. This area is referred to as the home plate area.

No in many instances you will wind up with turf toe. Its an epidemic in Texas. Reebok has teamed up with Brine to fund a turf toe research facility. I highly advise you buy football cleats for football and save your lacrosse cleats for lacrosse.

If it doesn't say ROOKIE on the card then it probably is not a rookie card.

missed third strike

No, a Wild Pitch.

There is no sacrifice ground ball in baseball because you don't try to sacrifice yourself to advance the runner on the ground ball. Also, on a bunt, it's hard to get the leading runner anyway, so the fielder most of the time goes for the batter at first. On a ground ball however, the fielder most of the time has an easy option for the lead runner as well as the batter.

120 You do simple ratio math 54:225=X:500 54/225= Batting average of .240 500 (.240)=120

the speed it moved at was very close to a cannonballs speed after leaving a cannon

I would not recommend washing your hat in the dish washer because it can ruin the dishwasher! if you do not want to shrink the cap then put it in the washer and then hang to dry!!!

Do not wash your hat in any machine. It will ruin the bill. Wash it by hand in the sink, use a little brush. And keep the bill as dry as possible.

That extra line creates a "running box". When a batter puts the ball in play, while running to first base he must run in that box until reaching first. If not, he may be called for interferrence should a fielder, usually the catcher, throw to first and hit the batter/runner if he is outside the box in fair or foul territory.

The governing bodies for various levels of baseball (high school, college, youth leagues, etc.) have set performance standards for metal bats so that, under controlled test conditions, metal bats perform nearly the same as wood bats. Therefore, given all the same conditions, a ball would travel the same distance whether hit by a metal or a wood bat. However, in an actual game, batters swing at varying speeds and other conditions may be different, as well, resulting in different distances for hit balls.

No

No, Reggie Jackson is still alive.

The only rules concerning the dugout are that 1. There must be a 'bench' for each team. 2. It must have three walls and a roof. 3. Must be below the playing surface. It used to be traditional for teams East of the Mississippi to use the first-base side for the home dugout, and teams West of the Mississippi to use the third-base side. However, this is no longer universally followed.

Nope. It's a stolen base.

The most runs scored by the Padres in a single game was 20 against the Expos in May, 2001 and against the Marlins in July, 1996. http://sandiego.padres.mlb.com/sd/history/single_game_records.jsp
