Revenge of '96: STOP THE CHOP

It was just a home run, not a grand slam

Only three players in the 100+ year history of major league baseball have hit a grand slam in their 1st at bat, and two of them have done it in the last 3 years.

(Who can name them?)

FanShots are underrated.

How's Lahair's defense been, I haven't really paid attention.

Chris Davis looked bad yesterday on defense. Sure some of the throws his way were off, but he has to catch at least one bad throw.

So our prospects need to suck right away.

I seem to remember an OF who struggled early on that was supposed to be good. We should call him up from oh gently caress you Bavasi

Go Nova

You forgot Greg Pirkl.

What's your definition of start?

I would do cartwheels over my name written in sand

So arbitrary definition

Pirkl's first stint as a mariner did not go well

if you take ‘hot start’ to mean his second call-up, the one in 1994, then yeah.

Big Pirk was an icon in Tacoma, especially after he had a few effective relief outings. Seems there used to be a hell of a lot more of that position-player-as-pitcher thing in AAA in the 90s. Like when Jamie Burke beat the Rainiers by throwing 2 or 3 IP of scoreless ball in an extra-inning game.
