How to heckle a baseball pitcher, the JVS way.
1. Sneak into good seats near home plate. The whole thing wont work if you can't get into the field of vision/attention.

2. Scowl and stroke beard

3. Wait for a quiet moment in the game, continue scowling and stroking beard.

4. Shout at pitcher: "Your wife is unfaithful!"

5. Enjoy your well-delivered zinger.

4. I prefer...
shouting to the next batter on deck "quit scratching your nuts, jughead!" Simple, direct, to the point, particularly if the guy is, in fact, scratching his nuts.

6. I have seen an interesting heckling technique for pitchers in the bullpen that involves throwing...
half of a coke at them and running like hell. It really seemed to break his warmup routine.

18. WE? Don't get me involved in this. MLB agents could be listening as we speak...
and I hope not to be banned from baseball like Pete Rose

9. It is the understated manner that gets in their head and fucks with them
Obscenity, they've dealt with. This is about delivering a bad message calmly

11. Infidelity in baseball?
A far bigger problem than steroids, egos and owners combined.

I should think most major leaguers would simply yell back, "Yeah — y'wanna piece of her?"

16. Been there, done that, but the pitcher wasn't interested in me
The umpire was having the affair with the pitcher's wife; the batter was stroking his beard, too. :shrug:

20. I had much more fun heckling batters when I played catcher
"your sister is a much better kisser than your mom" was one of my favs.
I even got tossed out of a game for running my mouth.
