The other day, my neighbor, who is apparently a HUGE Red Sox fan, said that she thought that Dice-K had an "elegant" pitching style. That's the first time I've heard baseball described as elegant, but after watching him, I have to agree. He's so clean - he breathes, and pitches. His style is nothing like the other pitchers'. Those guys have to fix their gloves, rub their eyes, fidget with their hats, spit, look around, spit again, and then pitch. It's amazing how much OCD is in this sport. The players have so many things they HAVE TO do before they bat. Seriously, if I had to do all that shit before I got on with my life, I'd still be in 5th grade.
So, things I like about Dice-K:
The announcers actually don't call him Dice-K
He pitches. He doesn't give in to every obsession before pitching, he just pitches.
His uniform fits
