Here are a few pictures from over the years...I'm sure I have more on my old phone.
Gibbs getting blown up. The next game in the series he got trucked again. It was the 3rd out of the inning so he tossed the ball over his shoulder while walking back to the dugout and hit the runner in the chest. It started a nice little brawl. He played for LSU if you're wondering.
My glove...and Chipotle or something.
Yeah...I'm skinny.
Got a chance to throw in Miller Park.
Mississippi River flooded a stadium we played at in te Midwest League.
I went to prom with Mrs Reauxltide after I signed. I thought I slipped away in the cover of darkness...but apparently not. Jordan Zimmerman decorated my locker the next morning. I had to wear the crown and prom king sash all day on the field
Had labrum surgery(not the reason I was released)
Well there ya have it. The glory days of minor league baseball

91mph at Zephyr Field in '98 before the LSU-UNO game.
There used to be a radar gun and an area under a concourse you could throw in.

73. Was never a pitcher.
Caught for a friend that was consistently in the 90s and hit 94 a couple times. String of bad luck and pissed his chances away though.

Pitched in high school and hit 75 at my best. Played a ton of softball, baseball, and coached baseball, so I threw a lot of batting practice. Pretty much wrecked my arm, but I still play softball. Don't know that I could break a wet paper towel now. My shoulder hurts like crazy after throwing a few balls hard.

I've never played baseball in my life, but my 7th grade science teacher was the wife of an MSU Football Assistant coach and actually had a radar gun. One day, we went out and clocked everyone. I clocked in at 55 MPH. I think I could've added a few MPHs to that if I actually used a 4-seam fastball grip. I had somewhere between a 2-seamer and a splitter. I didn't know all of the nuances with pitching grips at the time.

Hasn't TexanPete already been caught in a huge lie before?
