Why Sidney Ponson Didn't Cut It

I was at one of the last games where Sidney Ponson pitched for the Royals, and I think he did pretty well, but I noticed something during his work out that might clue us in on why he was having so much trouble. I captured this phenomenon in a series of photographs. See below.

1) Here we see a focused and determined Ponson. About to throw some long toss and loosen up.



2) The wind-up. Good extension; still focused.



3) The delivery - tucks the glove; doesn't throw across his body. An overall good toss.



4) Whoops! What's going on out there? Focused, but not on baseball.



5) Screw baseball. I'm watching the 100-foot Homer Simpson.



I think our man has a little case of the, well, come on ... A.D.D. it up folks ...

P.S.
Dear Royals,

Please stop playing cartoons during our starting pitcher's warm up. Play nothing but Bon Jovi and ACDC music.

Thank you,

Tom Page
