Baseball - Pitchers -Eddie
16 x 20  Oils on canvas panel

I have some more baseball paintings that I want to do. These paintings will depict the catchers doing catcher things - whatever that means to me at the time.


BUT! This guy is going to blast a fast-ball right past the batter. Unless the batter is looking for a fast-ball to be thrown. Oh, the strategy that's going on!


I played catcher (when I was MUCH younger) and those fast-ball pitches not only "pop" in the  mitt, they HURT. I stopped playing that position in a hurry and whined until the coach replaced me with a kid that was more dumb that I.
