Damn! I changed the title on the blog to "Fastball", as I figured he's too young to be throwing curves (so the experts say). Then I used the wrong title for the post. Oh well. I was unsure what to do about the shortstop. That's the edge of the frame, so there's no getting more of him in. I have other shots where other players (including baserunners) are nicely placed in the background, the the pitcher himself wasn't well captured at all. So this is the best of the captures of the young fellow throwing. I was thinking about cropping out the SS, but decided to keep him there. Too bad I didn't get all of him, as then it would be a no-brainer - his alert stance and facial expression are terrific. Obviously, you're in the "crop out" camp. I wonder if anyone out there will prefer him in?
