I actually took the pose from a photo of Mike Messina a Yankee Pitcher, but as how the Yankees are our arch rivals my fingers would not paint pin stripes or the Yankee logo.

Thanks Dave for the offer but if you put him in pin stripes I would have to leave him outside

Oh my goodness he is a wonderful carving. The body action is just terrific and nice job on the painting too.

Again, you produced a great garving no matter what team orientation you chose. The Sox are a great team as are my Yanks, should be an interesting season. as much as I dislike saying this, "good luck to BOTH of us.

Hope everybody gets past the A Roid scandle. Big media party at spring training yesterday, I don't think they even practiced.

I have a math problem I could use help with. If we carved 4 inch figures of A Rod and the 100 or so other roid users what size base will we need to mount the figures in a presentable fashion suitable for display in Cooperstown?
