Richard Schiff is a really good baseball player. It's surprising because he looks exhausted.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Baseball skills schizophrenically encompass a pitcher's, a batter's and a fielder's.
Baseball players have such a bad rap of, like, 'We don't work out or we're not strong or this or that.' Guys work so hard in baseball, it's incredible. But people don't know that.
This day and age, you look at baseball as a whole, and not just the pitchers' side of it. You have the weight programs, you have the technology, and as a pitcher, you need to keep up.
Young pitchers don't throw enough in the minor leagues, and when they get to the majors, they don't have the stamina; their arms haven't been built up.

Not everybody's a baseball fan.
In baseball, you've got to keep working.

A pitcher is only as good as his legs.
