    Mauer Caught Stealing Signs?

    Manufactured video, but interesting nonetheless. Check it out before the MLB takes it down.

        It happens all the time. It's a part of the game.

          Pretty interesting to watch. The guy who created the video said he was ad libbing and making it up. But there was something going on there regardless. Of course the Twins deny it. There are so many subtleties (and not so subtle -see Mauer ) in baseball. It's great. Now, if the Dodgers could just put this regular season away with one stupid win.

            Very interesting. I can't imagine being Verlander, keeping everything straight, knowing that the hitter might know what's coming, and still keeping in rhythm.
            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              If you don't want teams to steal your signs, don't let them get to 2nd base.

                Twins de-coder for stolen signs,
                Offspeed-touch ear
                Curve-touch ear
                Fastball-touch ear
                Forkball-touch ear
                Scewball-touch ear
                Spitball-touch ear
                Mystery pitch-touch ear

                Seems like a great system. I honestly find it really amazing that people still take baseball seriously. No offense IPU, he is the only one I care about though. Anyone else that is offended get over it, we are talking about baseball.

                  No offense taken. Not everyone appreciates baseball the way I appreciate it.

                  You left out fastball in your decoder above: fastball - touch the brim.
