Bobby Kielty never got untracked and is on the DL. Maybe he's the lefty killer Kielty never got a chance to be.

<blockquote>Royals outfielder shoots TV reporter in face with pellet during locker room interview
Posted 7/28/2007 12:59 AM |
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Royals outfielder Emil Brown hit a television reporter near the eye with a pellet from a small plastic gun in the Kansas City clubhouse Friday afternoon.
A team spokesman said Brown didn't mean to shoot KMBC sports reporter Karen Kornacki with the plastic pellet gun. Brown started in left field Friday night against the Texas Rangers.
"It was certainly an accident," Royals spokesman David Holtzman said. "He wasn't shooting at anybody."
Kornacki was interviewing shortstop Tony Pena Jr. before the game when she felt the pellet hit near her left eye, said Gary Roberts, KMBC's assistant news director. Kornacki ended the interview and left the locker room immediately.
"I was just messing around in here," Brown said. "I feel terrible about it. Karen is one of the nicest persons that I've met, especially as far as the media is concerned. This happening to her, I feel absolutely awful about it."</blockquote>It seems the reporter was OK, perhaps protected by her contact lense from the pellet actually piercing her eye, but that's, um, something.

There was a little kid in my old neighborhood named Emil, and he was very proud that his name was "lime" spelled backwards.

Emil is, of course, the middle name of a pretty well known ex-Met.

These guys approve fully of Emil Brown's choices in leisure pursuits and wish to know why the machine took their quarter.

When he hit the reporter, did he run it out?
Seriously, I hope she's ok by now.

Am I the only one who hears the first name "Emil" and immediately thinks of Emil Muzz from the 1987 remake Dragnet, an underrated shitty comedy classic?

I think of a different obscure 80s Emil... the dude from Fame in Robocop:
You may remember him from a memorable toxic-waste header later in the film.

My wife and I enjoyed the first season of it. Then they messed with it in the 2nd year and soon after it was canceled.
