Disposing of the Lumber -- Baseball

[fslshooter]

I like to shoot batters from the first base line so that I can capture them coming out of the box when they hit the ball. The way this guy tossed his bat is a bit different. 1DmkII, Canon 300mm f2.8, 1/1600 sec @ f/5 ISO 200 AI Servo AF Drive Continuous (low) shot from between home and first base.

Nice photograph!

Is this a Daytona Beach, FL team? Just curious because I might be moving to that area.

Thanks and yes. They are the Daytona Cubs, Minor League High A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. Their ballpark is about 2 miles from the beach.
