Absolutely crazy. You've got the pitcher and batter constantly switching sides. The pitcher has a custom made glove that can switch hands. I never thought i'd see this type of situation.

Looks like some minor leagues have rules in place for this type of situation, but i've never heard of any for the majors. It only seems to say that both the batter and pitcher can switch once per at bat. IMO, the home team should get the last "choice," as in the visiting pitcher or hitter needs to declare first.

The story on ESPN.com has video as well, and it's much better quality than that YouTube clip I posted.

I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

That is cool.

You will see this happening more and more:

I think there is another young player that can do that to...?? Don't mock me out, but I caught something in my son's Boy's Life... biggrin.gif Not sure if this is the guy? I thought it was another child.

You would think that the home team would get the last switch?
