It would be all kinds of awesome to see Ichiro pitch next season.

Ichiro will pitch for us.

For the first time in the 2010 World Series. You heard it here first.

I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.
P.S. Fuck the Angels!

I wonder if they sat Matsui because he and Ichiro don't get along.

Awaiting the day I catch a Russell Branyan foul ball. I will make love to it.

Are Japanese umps always that enthusiastic on strike calls?

Or is he just caught up in the moment? Either way…awesome.

They couldn't possibly be more excited than one of the Little League umps has been this week.

Dude is blowing my mind. He’s Angel Hernandez, but worse, and doing it to children. He rung up a kid on a called third strike, took three steps to his left, did a Beltre happy-feet dance, pointed directly at the batter, and screamed in his ear that he was, in fact, out, in case he was not aware. I wanted to jump through my television and murder.
