And immediately see a bunch of fly balls off of 'groundballer' Ho-Ram.  And then I catch that Bloomquist is starting at SS.  I'm thinkin' that's probably a bad Hargrove decision since HoRam is too scared to enduce ground balls with WFB at SS.  

What's the irony, too, in Ichiro having a 14-pitch at-bat?  Man.  I have to check my calendar to verify it's not Friday the 13th.

Interesting
The Yankees had Sheffield last year and Shawn Chacon a couple years back.  And now it's just Jeter, who's about as black as Bryant Gumbel.

But yeah, black Americans are disappearing from baseball.  It's because basketball is more accessible and attracitve to inner city kids, and sadly, much of black America resides in the run-down inner cities.  If you want to play baseball you need gloves, bats, a big ass field with a diamond, some sort of pitching mound or rubber (most fields are softball sized with no mound)... for basketball all you need is a hoop based near a slab of concrete and a ball.  Kinda like how soccer is hugely popular around the world because all you really need is a ball.

As for all the Latino nations producing ballplayers despite this, hey, the academies have worked wonders, but there's also a demand for baseball there.

Okay
Things I learned last night:
  • My kidneys cannot handle the amount of liquor I drank last night.
  • I really, really like watching curling on TV... at least when I'm hammered.
  • Al's in Wallingford is WAY, WAY better than the lounge I've been hanging out at for the last few months.  I can't believe I stopped going there after I moved.
Things I learned today:
  • Brad Thomas should've stayed in Japan.
  • Michael Wilson and Luis Valbuena are a few more 0-4, 3 K games from saying Fuck It and going into cashiering at Burger King.
  • If the M's play this well when I'm not watching them, then I need to stay away for the early innings more often.
  • I was right about Brandon McCarthy.
  • If I didn't actually watch Jose Vidro hit two home runs, then I cannot possibly believe it happened.

It's probably in his best interests that it wound up out of play.

So I get home, turn the tv on and see the Mariners
kicking ass. Alright. Then I'm reading the live box score and I see Vidro has two homers and an infield hit.

What?

That can't be right can it? I mean,....what?

batshit is only used either when referring to the sanity of someone or to actual bat excrement.
