The Dodgers’ James Loney demonstrates the Pilates One Single Leg Kick as he is sliding into third base for a triple Wednesday in the third inning of a baseball game against the Houston Astros.
James Loney has been putting his mind, body and soul into his effort this season, which makes perfect sense.
Loney had a hit in every Dodgers game this season heading into Monday’s contest against the Pittsburgh Pirates. That would be a 12-game hitting streak to start the season, or better yet, a hit in 20 of his past 21 games dating back to the end of last season.

Curt Schilling endorsed Senator McCain.

Schilling, who just turned 41 and signed a one year 8 million dollar contract with the Red Sox is very well known for saying what is on his mind, and doesn’t worry about public appeal. No B.S. he tells it like it is.
This is what he had to say about Pilates “It really does work. The hard part is getting past looking really really stupid for the first week or two while you are doing it. I did Pilates in my basement and after my wife got done laughing at me a couple times, I decided it was something I needed to do. Then in the fourth week I started to understand the Pilates terminology, the idea of working from your center. By the third month I was more powerful and flexible than ever before. And I’d lost 15 pounds.” Real men do Pilates.
