Stealing Second Base

Dewayne Wise, #45 Left Fielder steals 2nd base out from under Bartolo Colon's nose (the pitcher). The Oakland A's won this game and took 4 games out of 4 for the sweep from the New York Yankees! The Yankee's payroll is over $120 million US, the A's payroll is about $15 million - about the same amount of money that Short Stop, Derek Jetter makes in one year (Famous player for the New York Yankees). I guess the Yankees are not the best team money can buy. Everyone is talking about the Oakland A's. Money Ball is a term we're hearing more and more this year....

Enjoy!

This was taken with the new Olympus OM-D camera. I was using the Lumix 100-300 zoom, which performed admirably at 9 fps (this zoom is 200 - 600 on a 4/3rds camera). This image is only slightly adjusted from the original RAW file and then cropped to a 10x10 crop.
