Oh well, while I'm at it ... In the old tyme baseball photos, you see a path from the plate to the mound. What was that for, and why did they stop using them? == Johnny in OKC |

The answer isn't too far away, I'm sure. As for the baseball question - haven't a clue, but I wouldn't mind knowing myself. B. |

(dumb maybe answer to the BB question--maybe the pitcher and the catcher had to confer verbally more often before the advent of hand signals for pitches, and so wore a path between the mound and the plate? We need Rick F. here) |
