Watch how many pitchers who will literally change their stride to miss the white lines on the first and third base sides......I actualy once saw a Red Sox pitcher pull his groin so bad he was on the 60 day DL trying not to jinx himself by stepping on the lines!!!

And to Travis if I'm alive in the last at HP I almost always include Chop Chop....don't ask me why but he has both cashed and cost me P4's and a couple of P6's

i wonder tho--do these folks not realize that if they do this every time, it's bound to happen before losses, as well as wins?! so it certainly is not foolproof.
