    Just curious...do you have superstitions before a game?

    I used to be crazy before a game...socks had to be just right (same color)...pants legs same heighth.....never, ever stepped on white lines, kissed a pretty girl before a game ( that could present a challenge sometimes)....etc, etc.

    Do or did you guys have any?

    Crossed bats in the dugout, not good. Packing up the equipment before the last out, not good.

    A wad of gum stuck on a random player's hat ALWAYS brings good luck and is a rule that should be followed by at least one player on the baseball team before every game !:thumbup:
