Terrific book--a lot of great information presented in such a very readable way. Sadly I didn't have my current camera in 2005, so I don't have much of him--nothing approaching those great shots Getty has on that page. Relief pitchers are usually toughest for me because my camera is best in good light--I need to catch them in day games to get action shots worth looking at. I've been very lucky with Cla, fortunately! I actually have two copies of Moneyball, as I kept wanting to re-read it when I’d lent it out!

It just doesn't look physically possible. Jonathan Papelbon's little brother is a submariner in the Sox minors, and some of the photos I've taken of him just don't look real. http://www.sittingstill.net/photos/06August26/082606_600.jpg Bradford’s delivery was always fun to watch when we had him in Boston.

Good thing Beltran got one back for them. ^_^ Always fun to watch Bradford's delivery. Jonathan Papelbon's little brother Josh (in the Sox minors) is also a submariner... I took pictures of him at one game http://www.sittingstill.net/06August26.htm and had a hard time believing that the images I had were real. This one, say... http://www.sittingstill.net/photos/06August26/082606_600.jpg ... that's just wrong. Phew! Good thing Beltran got one back for them. ^_^
