And while I have the google working, here is Bob Feller demonstrating different grips. It looks like Feller's right hand starts well below his belt, pretty much like Strassburg. He generates his power by extending his arm as far as possible in the wind-up, and by getting some acceleration from every joint, shoulder to fingers.



How long did Feller pitch?

this is a sick video

ESPN Scorecenter update on my phone:
Yanks, Red Sox both 0-3. 1966 was the only other season in which both teams started 0-3.

Wow, two teams in the MLB started 0-3. Minnesota, Atlanta, San Diego are also 0-3.

Heaven forbid Jackson's gem of a game today would make the headlines on their MLB page.  This is from 11:42 p.m. Saturday:

You're right, Ozzie Guillen getting a headache is more important.

That was one of the biggest stories of the week and almost caused an international incident.  Seriously, don't think Jackson's game is more important than it actually is.  It was a really nice game on a team that hasn't really done anything ever vs. at team that is a middle of the pack team themselves.  The Nats haven't done anything to warrant that level of attention yet.  Enjoy it, but that doesn't mean it's one of the biggest stories in baseball, because it isn't, at least not this early in the season.  Sorry.

Um, and what does Ozzie having a headache have to do with it?

Reminds me of the media reporting about Antonin Scalia tripping at a restaurant.

Except it's not.  It's a story about how it's killing him to not be with his team.  Given the circumstances of the past week, it's pretty relevant story.

Well, NO team has done anything in 2012.  Remember this news for 2012....not some time in the past when the Yankees and Red Sox were actually winning something.  At this point in the season, every team is on the  same footing.   And if you look at the updated updates, they have dumped the Guillen story so it wasn't that important.

Um, wow.  That's news.  I'm sure no one would have expected a major league manager to be in disarray after being suspended.  Homey, PLEASE.

Guys, the rally squirrel is more important than a 2-hit complete game shutout. Stop being absurd.
