I was watching game 5 and during...I think it was the 5th or 6th inning, and Shane was on 2nd and the Dodgers had racked up three errors - the pitcher was falling apart...and FOX played the audio from Shane and he was (I don't remember the exact quote) basically telling the pitcher to "clear you head, c'mon buddy you can do it" and I just thought that was pretty cool to say that to the team you were trying to beat. Then he made this awesome catch later on. So I decided to use his pose when drawing this because he was impressive. I don't follow the NL much, since I watch the AL - but I do like to watch all the playoff games.
<3 Sweeeeet. Thank you!!!! ^___^ I'm so psyched~~ And I totally knew that was his pose!! I have the photo of him in that hitting pose on my fridge. XD I cut out the pics from the newspaper and put them on there. ^^;; So I still have that one up. I agree...he's really amazing. He should win the best sportsmanship award. XD After all that crap that happened during those games...and just how awesome he played. *___* Anyhoo, great drawing. You really captured the pose perfectly! And I like the lettering. :3 It's very dynamic. Thank you! <333
