Little Joe Morgan moving his right elbow back and forth while awaiting a pitch.

mother fricking batting glove adjustment
Really? I mean really dipshit? you need to un-velcro and re-velcro your fricking gloves in between EVERY pitch? jesus christ man, you're fricking batting .210 with 1 homer on the season. get over yourself frickwad. Maybe you should focus on making contact before you worry about tighteing your gloves after having them on your hand a total of 3 seconds.
Which brings me to my next gripe, wrist tape.
You ever ask yourself, hmmm why would a baseball player need to tape his wrists? Is he blocking someone like a football player does? no? hmmm what's the tape for then? a baseball player literally NEVER is in a position to injure his wrist, so why the tape?
Oh I know why, because when you tape your wrists your forearms swell up and look jacked. Good job guys way to look good for the tv cameras.

Jeff Bagwell's WIDE batting stance
It honestly looked like he was taking a shite. If I recall correctly, this wasn't something that evolved until later in his career. Loved Bagwell; hated the stance. And he'd be so ridiculously off-balance on a swing and a miss that he'd nearly fall over onto the plate.

This shite burns me up to no end. I think he's such an a-hole for pitching like this.

Mike Hargrove, the human rain delay
Steve Carlton's facial tics when he pitched
One I liked: Willie Stargell's bat gyrations

What was the pitcher's name who would brush his teeth between innings, eat black licorice, jump over the base line going to and from the dugout, & who REFUSED to catch a ball thrown to him by an umpire? Can't remember his name, but he was mildly entertaining...
ETA didn't see someone had already mentioned Turk Wendell. My bad
