Default baseball has been very very good to me...

Red Sox at Blue Jays. I learned they closed the roof because the Red Sox pitcher throws the knuckle-ball and apparently having the roof closed causes him problems. I guess it worked because the Blue Jays won this game. Go Jays!

big hit

single

near hit

pitcher

Nice shots, but they are a little dark. I guess that is the best you can get without a fast lens.

@kirbinster - yes, the lighting was horrible. i had my iso cranked all the way to 1600 and because i needed such a fast shutter speed the exposure was very bad. i couldn't get the 1/1000 that i wanted and had to settle for around 1/320, which was not very fast - as you can see from the blur.

that's a neat little trick - do they do it with all the knuckleballers? .. great captures
