The Do's and Do not's of Baseball

I go to a lot of baseball games... how else would I have been able to create an entire blog post of Dos and Donts of Baseball... I don't make this up people. I also consider myself to be pretty baseball savey... savy... savey?? Whatever. There for I am allowed to make these lists.

THE DO NOTS OF BASEBALL

• It does not matter if you are on a first date.. with friends.. boyfriend/girlfriend.. it doesnt matter who you are with... if you do not know about baseball do not talk about it like you do.. For EXAMPLE: " The "R" on the Scoreboard stands for how many runners are on the field and the "H" means how many homeruns have been hit." Need another Example? "Because its a tie the game is now in overtime" EEEEEEEE WRONG!


• Do not bring a baseball glove to a game if you plan on sitting BEHIND the protective net. If you are wanting to catch a foul ball... then nut up and sit where you just might be hit by a foul ball and could actually catch a ball in that glove of yours.


• If you plan on eating Sunflower Seeds or Peanuts then spit the shells into a bag, cup, spitune, whatever but do not leave the shells on the ground. It is disrespectful and no one wants to walk in that crap.


• To all the pitchers in the bull pen if you are going to give out a " Scotty to Hottie" award... when putting your phone number on the ball for the girl to call you... do not put that the ball is from " # 9 " ... put your name.. because if the girl decides to call you she sure as hell is not going to call you #9.


• If you are going to chew.... well nevermind.. just don't. chewing is discustingly discusting.

• I support hecklers.. .Its not Baseball without hecklers but if you are going to heckle... do NOT and I repeat DO NOT shout out things such as " Pitchers got a big butt".... COME ON!


• Do not send your kids on top of the dug out at the end of the game and have them ask a million times for balls or bats. Leave the players and Bat Boys alone.. Its really annoying.. Its also really annoying for people like me whos season tickets are on top of the dug out.. I don't want to have to wait for your little kid to finally give up on asking for a broken bat and get out of the way to be able to leave my seat.


• If you are going to put up "K"'s .... be sure you only put up a "K" for the team your cheering for.


• If you come to an Orem Owlz Game and bring K's to put up.... Well just don't becuase I am the official "K" girl... k?


• If you are a baseball player... Do NOT wear your pant legs down.


• Do not bother the pitchers in the bull pen.. even if you see them playing the bubble gum on the hat game or bingo in the dirt... just don't bother them.
  

THE DO'S OF BASEBALL

• ALL I repeat ALL baseball players should wear their uniform with their pant legs UP


• If the song " Sweet Caroline" plays you must sing as loud as you can. Expecially in the " BA BA BA" part and the " SO GOOD SO GOOD SO GOOD" part


• Do sneek in 7-11 slurpees by hiding them behind your boobs. That also cools you off for about 2 minutes if its hot out.


• Do pick out the hottest player from the visiting team and distract him all night. Not only does it throw off his game but you may also get a ball at the end of the game.


• If you happen to sit on top of the dug out and need to get up only get up at the end of the inning or in between pitches so people do not miss anything by you walking in front of them because your on top of the dug out.


• If you are season ticket holders to any baseball team in any type of leauge... do have a Summer Family.. they are the best.


• If you decide to take a first date to a baseball game.. be sure you know what your talking about if she asks questions about the game.


• Everyone should just love baseball. Becuase it is the greatest game ever.


• If you decide to get drunk at a game... get even more louder and meaner when you heckle. Again. It wouldn't be baseball without it =)


• If you see someone catch a foul ball clap. If you see someone get hit by a foul ball and they give a sign or something that lets everyone know that they are ok.. clap.. its just the thing to do.


• If you are a 40 year old and at a baseball game trying to catch a ball and you happen to be sitting by a little kid who so badly wants a ball.... if you get the ball GIVE IT TO THE KID. ... In fact lets make that a baseball rule.. From now on if you get a ball you ALWAYS GIVE IT TO THE KID... inless its the Scotty To Hotty award... you might want to keep that one. Hehe
