Never played much ball, did you?

OP was entirely justified. :thumbsup:

Played catcher in High School and American Legion. I talked in between pitches but not when the batter was in the box.

Oh, come on! You never, when the ball is on the way, say, "That's strike one!"???

MotionMan

or ask him if he wanted some naked pics of his gf

"Do you have any naked pictures of your wife?"
{pause}
"Want some?"

(Name that movie)

MotionMan

Wasn't it Bull Durham?

Not the movie I was thinking of (but I am not familiar enough with Bull Durham (have not seen in many years) to dispute your claim.)

Yeah, except it is a Temple league. That would not have gone over well with my Rabbi.

Well, you could have recited from tanakh

Oy.

MotionMan

Think about it, what kind of fuzz can he kick up when you do that?

The best revenge is to hit a line drive right back at the pitcher.
He will either get pegged with the ball and learn his lesson, or frantically jump out of the way and learn his lesson.

Ham Porter: PLAY BALL! Hurry up, batter. This better be a short game, I gotta get home for lunch.
[Pitcher pitches and the batter fails to even swing]
Ham Porter: Haha, that's one.
[cuts to new pitch]
Ham Porter: [to the batter] You know, if my dog was as ugly as you. I'd shave his butt and tell him to walk backwards.
[cuts to new pitch]
Ham Porter: Here it comes, it's coming, I tell ya. STRIKE THREE
[Porter puts the batter off, he swings and misses]
Ham Porter: YOU'RE OUT!
[cuts to new pitch]
Ham Porter: Is that your sister out there in left field, naked? She's naked?
Phillips: [swings and misses again] SHUT UP PORTER!
Ham Porter: Hey, hey, hey, I'm just trying to start a friendly conversation, come on.
Ham Porter: [two seconds later] Think she'll go out with me?

After the pitch, the guy steps out of the box and says, "Is that because I quick pitched you?" (At least he knew he was being a jerk. BTW, he also tried to quick pitch other batters throughout the game.);
I say, "I am done now. I think we understand each other."

OH.... how the voices in my head start to go when they ask questions they already know the answer to..... ummm let's see...How about "Was that YOU ??" You look different somehow up close." or..."do you wiggle like that because your cup slides down still ? That'll stop soon, hopefully." :evil:

Of course you were a jerk. You're a lawyer...it's in your very nature...



I think you were well within the acceptable norms. As someone above mentioned, if the sissy can't handle a bit of chatter at the plate, he's definitely in the wrong game. Maybe he shoud stick to T-ball...

Who the hell even saw Mr Baseball? I do know that John Candy had a choice line or two that he delivered to batters in the early scenes of Brewester's. too bad I don't explicitly remember any of them
