And the pitching machine isn’t all that subtle either.

One time I asked some people on a subway platform what’s the difference between a “perfect game” and a “no-hitter”.

Two ladies answered my question. Probably were “sports widows”!!

Send that machine to the Mariners!

I gave up on all Pro Sports when they got political. I wanted to watch a sports game. Not some way, way overpaid athletes airing their social grievance.

Why are they even using a pitching machine? In practice, this is a time for the pitchers to get in some practice, too.

oh the irony

In our small country grade school I was usually the pitcher because I tried to throw the ball exactly where the big boy batter wanted it. Much later, I was surprised to find out the idea was to keep the batter from hitting the ball.

he’s all set to play 3rd base for charlie brown

Now, that is really sad.

Skyler must play for the Baltimore Orioles!

Could’ve been worse. Could’ve been tee-ball.
