I was just making a Captain Coke for the game. Dropped the bottle of Coke on my foot. 

It hurt... had to limp back to the living room. 

Clearly not a soft drink.

IMO it was the 2-0 fastball right in the *whomp-em zone for lefties.

 

*officially recognized label for down and in to a leftie.

Many plate appearances have multiple opportunities for skill by the batter - the ones he swings at, the ones he doesn't.

Not to start a tangent, but that's part of why defensive stats are always haunted by Small Sample Size even across a full season.  Batters don't merely have 700 PA for full-time play, they have 3,000 or so individual decisions on pitches, that separate the good players from the others over the long haul. A corner outfielder gets 10% of that many fielding chances, and a lot of those are cans o' corn.

Captain Morgan Rum and Pepsi. 

And Ice of course

Of course I used the Ice for my foot. 

Just dipped it in the drink

Many may think that is gross but my foot tastes great now.

I know it's the 3rd inning, but I'm 100% bunting with my 9 hitter if I'm Milwaukee in that situation.

Captain Morgan certainly didn't lead no infantry.

15 men on a dead man's chest. 

Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of rum.

Yelich for Kepler,  Both of them could use a fresh start,  

Might have to throw in Pagan as a sweetener.

Brewers will take that trade. They owe Yelich 26 million a year for the next 6 years.
