Binta Robinson is an attorney (Active Member of the DC Bar) located in Washington, DC. When she is not practicing law, Binta Robinson enjoys supporting Washington Nationals baseball. The Washington Nationals recently made baseball history, turning Major League Baseball’s (MLB) first ever 3-5-5 triple play and the franchise’s first triple play in any fashion. The play occurred in the bottom of the eighth inning, with the Nationals up 4-1 over the San Francisco Giants on the Giants’ home field. The three run lead began to look tenuous as the Giants loaded the bases with no outs. What followed will not soon be forgotten by Nationals fans and baseball enthusiasts the world over. Batting for the Giants, Brandon Crawford hit a sharp line drive to first baseman Ryan Zimmerman, who had taken the field immediately before Crawford’s at bat for defensive purposes. Zimmerman made good on that call, catching the line drive for one out and immediately tagging first base, denoted by the number three on baseball’s positional numbering system. With two outs suddenly on the board, Zimmerman scanned the field and quickly saw that San Francisco’s Denard Span had not turned back to third base. Zimmerman made a casual toss across the diamond to third, denoted by the number five, for the easy out, ending the historic play. The Nationals went on to win the game. Binta Robinson, an attorney, who is an active member of the DC member, enjoys watching and engaging in several sports. She plays a number of sports, including basketball, and she also enjoys cycling. Binta Robinson also enjoys working on her tennis skills. There are a number of factors a person must consider when selecting a tennis racquet. While individuals who only play the sport occasionally can likely make due with whatever model is lying around the garage, anyone playing the game on a regular basis, even at the recreational level, should try and find a racquet they feel comfortable with. A number of considerations must be made in regards to a person’s playing style when choosing a racquet. Though young and inexperienced players may not have a complete picture of their preferred style of play, game types can be broken down into several basic categories in relation to racquets. For example, power racquets, also known as game improvement racquets, feature large heads and lightweight frames. Power racquets are ideal for players with short, slow strokes that lack power. Power racquets are also great for beginners, young players, and anyone who needs more force behind their strokes. Meanwhile, control racquets, or player’s racquets, are better suited to players who can produce their own power but desire a greater degree of control and accuracy. Player racquets are heavier with a smaller head size. The smaller, heavier frame can lead to more errors, but players accustomed to hitting the ball at the center of the racquet can generate extreme angles.
