Why does Katz do that hand thing before each bat

i dunno, but maybe he'll start a trend of other baseball players having weird rituals, because he's clearly the first

I remember my first baseball game....................

he's channeling the force.

it's a quirk just like anything else.

Why does Gausman eat doughnuts between innings and jump the baseline on the way into the dugout?

Why do the base runners chop thier legs after a hit?

WHY???!??!?

Taps each shoulder, back of neck, then helmet. I understand readjusting the gloves.

and why doesn't the man carry his club with him when he runs around the pitch?

Consistency! As a hitter it is good to have a routine to keep you focused.

Fixed it...He stopped that near the end of his last season at LSU

he may have stopped the last few games at LSU but apparently he's still going strong in the pros.

same reason why a basketball player does the same thing before every free throw. Develop a routine and stick to it

When you bat around .400 all season you can do that.
