Surely, He'll Kill Us All

Drafted in the 29th round by the Pirates last year, young prospect Brock said fuck it and returned to school for his senior season. Taken this year in the 10th round by the Tigers, he elected to sign, making his debut yesterday.

The prospect's last name? Deatherage! Brock Deatherage.

If that isn't enough to make you shit yourself and die, his debut was today in the notoriously power-poor Gulf Coast League, and he hit THREE homers! Yeah, as a four-year college student, he's probably playing under his level, but that's the first three-homer game in the GCL in seven years! In his very first game! His pro debut! His wood bat debut! Against the Yankees' affiliate!

His name is Brock Deatherage. Eat shit and die.

He needs to drop that second E from his surname.

Saw Death Wish first run in a theater in Woodside, Queens. Great flick.

Never heard of Death Rage. And I went to the movies every week back in the 70's.
Was that a "direct to dumpster" movie?
I remember Bouchet from Star Trek TOS.



Ha. Now I've got to see this.

Man, vigilante films are a weird time capsule.

That second clip went on maybe 2 minutes too long.
They laugh, they love, they steal stuff from their hotel room,...slipped acid eye drops?
And he has some kinda love/hate thing going on with NYC. He smiles as he
stabs the city in the back.

I can't wait til this is re-released! I'll be rooting for the crooks :)

This thread could be in the non-baseball forum and be about something else.

Wander just a little further phonetically and you could be on Death Race 2000!

Dunno. To these ears, "Deatherage" sounds less like "utterly metal apocalyptic event," and more like "Victorian-era euthanasia facility."

Deathmonger hit a fourth homer in his second game. I guess a game with a single homerun qualifies as a slump for this guy.

Current line through two games: .556 / .600 / 1.889 // 2.489
