    Crazy Baseball Pictures

    I was going through some old boxes from when I moved (more than 3 years ago) and I found a 1992 Upper Deck George Brett baseball card...

    look at the flex on that bat... that has to be a warping of the picture right??


    I have seen this Pujols pic before too, but man he smashed that ball

    Those are awesome. I remember a while ago they did a thing on hockey and how the sticks do that too. It was cool.

    That Pujols pic is from team photographer Scott Rovak. He sells it as a limited edition print. I have it hangin in the man cave. Very cool!

    To answer the question about the bat bending/flexing...yes it is very likely the bat is actually bent. Wooden bats DO bend and "wave" when batters make contact.

    Another one of Albert crushing the ball, shot by Jamie Squire, Getty Images. I have a couple of MLB authenticated balls hit by Albert and they are literally warped -- the seams do not line up.

    That A-Rod shot is incredible. You'd think it was a golf club, not a two pound chunk of solid wood.
