Spirit in the Sky

Inspired by my last baseball-related post featuring Francisco “K-Rod” Rodriguez, I’m reminded of the ever increasing tradition of the sky pointing gesture in baseball. You know, the one that Barry Bonds does when he crosses the plate.

Barry Bonds

“I’m the man? No, you’re the man!”

I’ve decided to put together a gallery of some of my favorite frequent sky pointers.

Francisco Rodriguez
“K-God? It’s me, K-Rod.”

David Ortiz
“A-Rod never acknowledges you.”

Pedro Martinez
“I just tip my hat and call you my daddy.”

Orlando Cabrera
God responds: “C’mon Orlando, you just reached on a fielder’s choice. Is this really necessary?”

Carlos Beltran
“$119 million big ones, please.

Manny Ramirez
“Now, if you can get me that trade…”

Albert Pujols
Umpire:
“Yea, yea. Move it.”

Rafael Palmeiro
Oh…that’s a different kind of pointing gesture.
