Baseball

The Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees play their home games in cities near an ocean.

I assume by this you mean curveballs so these all the ways to throw different curveballs:

Curveball: Grip the ball like a two-seam and then put your fingers off-center so they're on the right seam, then snap your wrist hard off to the side. This can be very damagaing to your elbow if you're not mature enough and if you throw to many of them, can still be damaging even if you're old enough.

12-6 Curveball: Take the curveball grip and then move the ball up so your fingers are on the right seam of the horseshoe. PRESET your wrist in a position as if you're throwing a football. Then come straight down. This is much more safe than a curveball although with your fingers off-center you will probably come off very slightly. I would still not recommend throwing it if your not old enough but you can most definetly throw it with hardly any risk once you're old enough to.

Spike Curveball: Take a four-seam grip and then curl your fingers back so your fingertips are pressed hard into the ball. Then move your hand up so your about 3-4 of the way up from the bottom seam to the top and then throw straight down. It will have movement like a 12-6. Most pitchers have more success with a 12-6 but others have a better spike so you should definitley try it. This is completely safe to throw at ALL ages.

Knuckle Curveball: Position your index and middle knuckles so that they're on the bottom of the horeshoe seam and the thumb underneath. As you release flick your fingers forward. This will have curveball-like movement and is safe to throw at ALL ages. However, it could seriously mess up your form so be careful of that.

One. Aaron was a member of the 1957 Milwaukee Braves team that defeated the New York Yankees in the World Series, four games to three.

A rosin bag is designed to keep your hands tacky so you have plenty of grip on the ball in Baseball.

I don't know what the "legal" umpire answer would be, but I do know that fastpitch bats are made lighter so they can be swung quicker. It seems like you would want to use a slowpitch bat in slowpitch for the extra power you would get from the extra weight of the bat.

There is no rule against it as long as the bat is an approved bat in the league you are playing in, i.e. ASA, USSSA, ISA, NSA.

Through the 2011 season, the Cardinals have played in 18 World Series and won 11 of them in the following years: 2011, 2006, 1982, 1967, 1964, 1946, 1944, 1942, 1934, 1931, and 1926.

Almost certainly, although most would never admit it due to the non-macho stigma often associated with that lifestyle. Soccer players are as dependent on their reputation and appearance as they are on their skills. While there is certainly nothing wrong with having a given sexual orientation or gender identity, not everyone is as tolerant.

Ichiro Suzuki hit 262 hits in 2004 baseball season.

By contract with the union for Major League Baseball Players Association, starting pay for a new player brought up from the minor leagues is at least $600,000.

This rate of pay is higher than for policemen, teachers and firefighters because baseball players are "entertainers" and are paid by privately owned baseball teams. The formerly mentioned jobs are vital ones, however, the pay is from taxpayers. This could not be funded by any local, State or Federal government.

The World Series MVP award was not first given out until 1955 so the answer is 'no one'.

Looking at the stats for the 1923 Series, won by the New York Yankees over the New York Giants 4 games to 2, ...

1) Second baseman Aaron Ward of the Yankees batted .417 on 10 hits in 24 at bats.
2) Right fielder Babe Ruth of the Yankees batted .368 (8 for 19), hit 3 home runs, and was walked 8 times.
3) Second baseman Frankie Frisch of the Giants batted .400 on 10 hits in 25 at bats.
4) Outfielder Casey Stengel of the Giants hit .417 (5 for 12) with 2 home runs.
5) Yankees pitcher Joe Bush pitched 16 2/3 innings to a 1.08 ERA, giving up only 7 base hits.
6) Giants pitcher Art Nehf pitched 16 1/3 innings to a 2.76 ERA, giving up only 10 hits.

Since the MVP award is almost always given to a player on the winning team, I will split it three ways and give it to Ward, Ruth, and Bush.

The Phillies retired #14 in honor of Jim Bunning in 2001.

no. they can pick off to any runner or step off the rubber with their BACK foot. if there is a runner on third, he can step with FRONT foot to pick off to third if he does not step to home past the invisible line cutting from third to home at 45º. if he does it's a balk. he can turn and throw to second if there is a man there. in essence, no.

Don't know the percentages, but left field is more common. Most batters are right handed, and, on averge, a batter is more likely to "pull" the ball when he hits it. (Note: when a batter is said to "hit to the opposite field", that means that a right-handed batter hits to right field or a left-handed batter hits to left field. On the surface, this is not "opposite field" at all. But it's called "opposite field" because it goes against the natural tendency of a right hander to hit to left field and a left-hander to hit to right field.)

"Baseball been berry, berry good to me" was the catchphrase of a fictional baseball player named Chico Escuela, who appeared as a character on Saturday Night Live.
