Re: Gay Dame IGT 9/3/09: The Thole Grail has Arrived

I've only watched a few innings here and there, but I did notice Keith snorting about the helmet during the first inning on Tuesday night. (He said something like, "Geez!" under his breath.) Keith is such a metrosexual, he's going to think the fashion aspect of the helmet is important. The helmet was pretty ghastly, though. Although I knew better, I kept getting the feeling that David had returned from his concussion with a grotesquely swollen head.

Keith seems to be terrified of people. I ran into him on an elevator at Citi Field earlier this year and he was trying squeeze himself into the corner as much as possible.

Listening to WFAN as I head down Rte 8 to Bridgeport, and Josh Thole's mom - right behind the dugout, with his dad and two ofhis old coaches - almost drowned out Wayne and Howie when he got that hit. Sounded like she was the only fan in the park. Kinda brought a tear to my eye, actually.

Right wrobbed by CFer Gonzalez. The only surprising part is that Pagan knew enough to tag and score rather than leaving early and being halfway home by the time of the catch. 6-0

All but one of those games were with SF. Freaking Bonds provided zero offense for the boy. Bonds, totally unreliable. Jerry hooking Misch. Give that boy a hand, and a Schaefer.

Its called BAMS (Batting Average Minus Stupidity) which is calculated by taking [hits minus times thrown out on the bases due to baserunning blunders] divided by at bats. Angel's tag up today put him just over the Mendoza line for the year. Later
