Funny. But if I were the umpire, I'd run him so fast his head would spin. I'd ask my union to lodge a request for a suspension. And the next game I had with the team, I'd run him again just for saying "good evening, sir" to me. Show me up. Nuh uh.
Anyone know of a site that breaks out team strikeouts by called third strike versus swinging? Twins seem like they must be leading the league, either in raw count or by ratio.
Yes, looking at the pitch-by-pitch for the top of the first versus the next two and a half innings, and the Sesame Street song about one of these things being not like the other ones comes to mind.
C'mon Chief. Remember Yogi's words of wisdom: "You give 100% in the first half of the game, and if that isn't enough, in the second half you give what's left."
