Ha! You just don't understand the rules.
I'm always surprised at how much movement I catch in human beings at
1/400 sec -- I wouldn't think that there would be that much, but feet
and hands (especially the feet of a player exploding out of the
batter's box) are frequently blurred. If I could get closer, I'd love
to try shorter lenses and lower shutter speeds, but unfortunately
there's a ton of foul territory at Rogers Centre and no way to get any
closer to the subjects without interfering with the game. And they
took away one of our better vantage points to add a new row of luxury
seating! *sigh*
