As good as W.C. Fields's ping pong?

Forget it. This guy just can't produce when needed.

Actually, I think he was being asked to CAPITALIZE

[operation mindcrime]

Thank God we got that out!

[ScrapTheNickname]

Hulot, Fields, and Arraez - trick athletes!

[ashbury]

I'll look him up. Alas i don't know as many baseball players as i should.

Catch up on the game thread, and you'll learn about a gentleman named Herb Washington, and an oblique reference to Germany Schaefer.

[Don Walcott]

What a play by Arraez!

[ashbury]

Routine 4-3 putout there.

[mrtwinsfan]

Game looks more like a spring training game,  be glad next year when they change the call up amount

[Brock Beauchamp]

Goddamn, Arraez is a gamer.

What is Garver backhanding that for! It's stunning how badly we CATCH when the job is called CATCHER!

[mrtwinsfan]

Yankees r hot on the twins for Home Run  record  now also!!

[Danchat]

These wild pitches are starting to get real annoying, boys...

[Don Walcott]

Big K, Lewis!!

I just seen Castro do that a couple games back too.  Not every pitch need to get framed!

[operation mindcrime]

Bring in the Heat!!!!!!!

[MNT1996]

I love this move. Give the kid some good high leverage experience.

I wouldn't even mind if the Yankees get the record. It means absolutely nothing to me. Winning the division, however, does mean a lot to me.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Wow.

[Don Walcott]

Yeah, here comes the Brusdarrrrr!!!

I don't know. 7 down and they've played two more games than us. Where are the Bombas?

I agree. Play the game. Give the kid a shot. (If it backfires Baldelli will be blamed though.)

[ashbury]

Is it just me, or does Brusdar Graterol facially resemble fellow Venezuelan Willians Astudillo?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

As good as W.C. Fields's ping pong?

Thanks for that bit.

 

Hulot's ping pong scene is more eloquent. He disrupts 2 card games merely be chasing down the rogue pingpong ball.

 

Hasn't come up on a first search though...

 

And as Ashbury pointed out, i have yet to catch up on the rest of the thread.

[MNT1996]

Oof

[mrtwinsfan]

We r Dead  tonight

So, if Willians Astudillo and Luis Arraez had a baby,... ?

[ashbury]

Rats.

[ashbury]

So, if Willians Astudillo and Luis Arraez had a baby,... ?

... people would talk.

[operation mindcrime]

Ugh!

Same here, Tired of Bremer yapping about it
