Skip Schumaker was annoying as frick. Ever pitch took an extra 5-10 seconds because he would mess with his damn batting gloves, opening them, closing them, opening them, closing them.
Pitchers should of yelled once to get in the f'in box, next at bat bean him.

Al Hrabosky--"The Mad Hungarian" getting mad at the ball, slamming it into his glove, and turning around to face the batter with a scowl on his face like he had just been blamed for a fart that was not his.

Steve Garvey--I hated his routine at the plate. He was a great, no doubt, but I hated the way he swung his bat a few times before getting ready for the pitch.
(can't find video)
Pete Rose--He was one of my favorite players on my favorite team (The Reds) and I know he's the "Hit King", but I hated his batting stance. And his fricking hair.

Do any of y'all remember Craig Biggio's batting helmet. I'm pretty sure if you looked at it funny, it would've growled at you.

I went through a phase of doing the Nomar toe tap thing when I went up to the plate before my inevitable strikeout.

Blasphemy!! One of my favorites to imitate in little league finding my swing.
Papelbon's scowl & crotch grab is up there for me

Pedroia opening his whole face for his eyelashes routine bugs me too

Barroid* wearing full body armor and leaning over the plate. I wish he had to face Don Drysdale or Bob Gibson.

Speaking of neck, (this isn't football related, shoot me) anyone remember Merton frickin Hanks? Dude looked like one of those African islanders with the 47 neck rings
