Good knight!!

It works. During my 4 years in the Basin League [South Dakota/Nebraska], the majority of the players were from the Big 10, Florida and California. Each team also employed 3-4 former Pro players.

During the Big 10 Championship game MSU & Ohio State, their 3b who also played in the Basin called "time out" and ran to the mound to tell the Ohio State pitcher "how to pitch me".

I could read the words "curve ball"! The next pitch was a "hanging" curve and the ball disappeared over the LF fence.

MSU won the game and the invitation to the College World Series.
