Amp Dexter Trust

Continuing with the sports theme from whenever the last time I posted about sports was, I've always wondered why there's never been an ambidextrous pitcher in baseball. I've heard of them at the college level, but not a single one of them has ever made it to the majors. What the hell? Really? Not even one?

I can't begin to tell you how valuable this would be. You wouldn't even need to be totally proficient with both hands. Just be able to get a fastball and a breaking ball over the plate and you could fake it for a couple of hitters. It would disrupt everything.

So if you have a kid, teach him or her to throw a baseball with both hands. Do it for me, okay?
