I didn't know there was such a thing as a famous bean-counter.

The only person I can think of is Juan Valdez but I don't think he is counting all those beans. 

I was going to come back with Valdez playing second base for the Athletics or something, but 1) there are no famous Juan Valdezes playing baseball, and 2) they've all been pitchers, it turns out.

It's a difficult moment when the road you are travelling runs out of road.

Oh it was real and those keeping score may not be happy with him because their scorebooks are a mess now. 

In the lead off position... you have to fill in his box under the 1st inning because he singled and scored. Then you have to fill in his box under the 2nd inning because he homered and scored. It's still the 1st inning and you are now using the 2nd inning column to finish the 1st...

This is the part that sucks. You have to cross out the 2 that signifies inning and write in a 1 and then cross out every inning after. Cross the 3 out and write in 2... cross the 4 out and write in 3... cross the 5 out and write in 4 all the way to the end of the game.  

The scorebook is now a mess and I'm going to hold Mr. Julien responsible for this. Yeah I know other people on the team helped but he started it. 

Disclaimer: I didn't keep score last night and I personally have no reason to complain for others who might have been. 

 

Oh, you don't just cut a first inning from some other page and tape it in, either as a folding segment, or a pop-up portion?

 

Pop-up books are always very creative.
