bakercolonelreb Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Calouses (easier for a batter to build calouses than pitchers, because the blisters appear on different parts of the hand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeWrecker Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 i thought it was well known.. he said it him self "urinates to toughen before game time" how about giving him a high five? now there where yuou need batting gloves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeWrecker Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 from the original ESPN story: Alou says the secret to hitting without batting gloves is to harden your hands and prevent calluses. One of his methods might win someone the prize money on the TV show, "Fear Factor." He urinates on his hands. That's the honest truth. Alou said he isn't sure where he learned this distasteful folk medicine, but it wasn't from his famous father. And it works for Moises.

CitK217 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 offthe field injurys, what a waste. Trust me here, you will want to use a better quality glove. One with not only grip, but padding for the parts of your hand that act up. Find the glove that is as close to yur situation as possible. You will hee a huge difference, trust me.

Guest Fritz Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Get some decent batting gloves. Don't be a cheapass and get the $5 Franklins from Wal-Mart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
