Blackwater 53393 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 It’s that NASTY sweeping curve ball that sends batters back to the dugouts “YACKING” at themselves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Then there's the third strike called by the Ump's seeing-eye-dog. Always hated that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something I really liked about that video was the way the audience reacted. In my experience, when the band plays the intro, the audience sits there like a bump on a log because they have no clue. Then when the singer starts singing, the audience goes crazy. YAAY! WOOOO! OH I LOVE THIS!!! And they make so much noise they drown out the first verse. But this group - when the band played the intro they got all the screaming out of the way. YAAY! WOOOO! I LOVE YOU LINDA!! And when she started singing they shut the hell up and listened. Except for those couple of idiots that every once in a while threw out a YEAH or WOOOO. But mostly they were quiet so you could hear who you paid to listen to. That's not normally the way it works.

That was from a performance in Atlanta in 1977. A different era long passed. Sigh… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwater 53393 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Filthy pitch is one with a really extreme movement. It’s the logical extension of NASTY!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
