We just kind of relied on written scouting reports through the eighties and even the early nineties. I've really been amazed by some of the data that's out there, especially with regards to tendencies of hitters, and certainly tendencies of pitchers as well. I would have loved to have gotten that data when I played. ↗

It is very important that when you put something on the grill, you leave it in place to cook. If you move it around too quickly, chances are it is going to stick. ↗
