    WHOA!!!!

    Now, I have to admit, I steal signals from first base whenever possible, but that's part of my job. I stay in the box, don't use a camera (lol) and don't use any electronic devices to communicate with my hitters, I just YELL!!!!! Maybe we should enter the 21st century and use the 007 earpiece with the pen microphone!!!! This is really something. I wish we had the money spent on the hydraulic lift and camera to just buy uniforms and equipment. this will be interesting as to the outcome, don't ya think?????:imagestor

    I would be careful yelling out signs from 1st base. If you were to do this in a baseball game you would have some players with sore ribs. Most pitchers won't tolerate that and would just plunk the guy in the batters box. That is the way it has always been and the way it will always be. I have even seen this in a couple softball games. It is just this simple you don't blantly steal signs and if you do it and get caught by the other team don't get mad when a 55 or 60 mph fastball happens to end up 2 feet inside belt high
    As for what Sherrill is doing with the camera the Hopewell people are right on target. He did the same thing when he was at Alexander Central

    dont doubt your word for baseball, but have never witnessed it in 1700+ games of softball, most just change sequence, signals or actually close their knees, don't actually yell "change up", have more intelligence and respect than that. But on to Sherrill, interesting huh? what would the penality be if this was true?

    it is clear that is payne the asst. i would know that head anywhere. he is the hatchet man for sherrill. this is only the tip of the iceberg of what it takes to make sure you stay on top. some people don't trust their players to get the job done. what will happen if you was to take those type of advantages away. anyway it looks like same old tricks that have went on for years for sherrill. i just hate it for the players because they don't need the tricks to win but it casts a shadow on the program.

    If this proves out to be true, there should be serious consequences.:thud: :thud:
