Baseball Man Laws

cheapseatscheapseats1,000+ posts
Okay posters, give us your favorite baseball "man laws" ....

1. Never use anyone else's equipment without asking.

2. When answering the coach always say "yes sir" or "no sir"

3. Always "run" to your position, even if it is center field.

Grow up and plan ahead. If you're a young-un,
below 12, Parents plan ahead and get him set before the game. Coming to the dugout is bush at any level (exception injuries).



This is bull! These young athletes have so much pressure and anxiety as it is, for them to worry about bringing drinks and seeds is so confusing for these youngsters. What type of example are you setting if you wont help them out.

Afte the game you should already have the airconditioning blasting, post-game meal, and the seat tillted back, for a nice relaxing ride to the house. By not doing this you show no respect for the TRUE game of baseball!

Ahhhh. How that brings back memories! I used to wear concession stand workers out with the combinations. "Coke, Root Beer, Red Soda, Sprite, and Tab (just because it was on the fountain and you didn't want to leave one out)".

#9 All Man Laws of Baseball are suspect to non-rule once you enter the bullpen. (Vegas law then applies...What happens in the bullpen, stays in the bullpen).

#10 Never warm up in front of the dugout or on the infield dirt.

Wow Quick Draw, you are an awfully nice parent...seat tilted back? Does McDonald's count as a post game meal? Wink

#13 Stop using other peoples gloves. If you want to be a catcher, get your own mitt, or 1b, same thing. Exception: a broken lace, or sliced open by a spike. Other than that, get your own.

#14 Don't do things like adjust the straps on borrowed shin guards, don't tighten laces or loosen them on someone elses glove, or make any other adjustments to another players equipment.
