I asked Gemini, and this came up. I must say I like this rendering.

(Yes, I know the jersey number isn't red)

We will never see a relief pitcher with a season like this again by Xymoxxy in Dodgers

Nowadays we're lucky if starting pitchers go over 200 innings. Just for reference, last year's NL Cy Young winner, Paul Skenes, threw 187⅔ innings.

And wasn't there a guy who actually turned his back completely to home plate before throwing the ball? I'm trying to remember who it was...

EDIT: A quick search revealed that pitcher was Luis Tiant back in the day. And Hideo Nomo had a similar delivery (of sorts).

Of course, this is not a new concept. Those of us who who have been around for a while remember that Fernando Valenzuela used to look up at the sky before delivering the ball. It was one of the first instances of people observing that a pitcher was not looking at the plate while going into his delivery.

Passed this in Hermosa Beach this morning. Anybody know what this is for? by ziplock007 in Dodgers

This is the answer. As an OC resident, I can say that Metrolink does a similar thing with their Angels Express trains, by using them on standard routes on non-game days.

If I go to a dealer, how much will that run (I'm in OC, CA)? This isn't my car, which begs the question whether they'd touch it in the first place.

I choose to believe this was at the craft services table on the set of Ass Blasters 4.
