Sorry if you meant only Major League. These were from a friend's highschool game. All taken with a 20D and 70-200 f/4L non IS. (working on a budget here! :) )

I'm ridiculously bummed because I could have had some greattt shots of the Pirates/Brewers game on Monday, but my camera was in the repair center. Neighbor gave me 4 tickets that were 3 seats behind visitors dugout.(Close enough to heckle the players!) Although I did make the tv for a good ten seconds while the announcers made comments about the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. All I was doing was leading cheers using a recorder.. :D
not just majors, baseball is baseball. i've discovered that there's not much i'd rather do than watch a baseball game through the viewfinder of my camera, i love it
mattsartin, the difference between the sigma and the canon is so huge, wow!
yeah it really is, part of that is nighttime versus daytime and faster shutter speeds, but that 300mm is the best lens i've ever used, i wish i cuold afford it, definitely tops on the wishlist
Here's a few I took at an Orioles/Red Sox game a few weeks ago using a friends 300 f/2.8
1/640 f/2.8 ISO 400

Well since we have the majors, minors and college, how about really little league. 7 year old grandson gets a hit. Not yet Yankee material.

<p class="MsoNormal"]1/30s f/22.0 at 400.0mm iso2500
