so this for all the lefties out there, my baseball coach keeps calling me backwards because im left handed. just wondering if other people that are left handed get called backwards...

well i dont play baseball...but

the baseball coach at my highschool has two kids one is a senior and one a sophmore. the sophmore is a pitcher. when he was in elementary school his dad forced him to be right handed because "the MLB doesnt have left handed pitchers" which i hear is untrue now. and this year he made him sleep with a baseball taped to his hands so he can throw a 2 seam pitch or something like that...

what a dickhead

and i thought of a book i used to read called the backwards birddog...i loved that book.

I'm right handed, but I have a cross dominance with a lot of things. For instance, I bat left, throw right, golf lefty, skate board goofy. I slide rails right-foot forward, but spin to my left.  being from the country I grew up hunting a lot, I shoot a rifle righty, but shoot a bow lefty. It's weird, i'm weird I guess, but it works and I"m pretty good at all of those things. tell your coach to screw himself. (not really, but you know what I mean)

pens are made for right handed people. if you put a pen in your right hand you can read the label right. if you put it in your left hand it is upside down and backwards.
