And why does he still play everyday?

MickeyMan · 07-30-14, 10:59 PM

It blows my mind how he bats 1 or 2 pretty much every game.

I don't even know how he can look his teammates in the face after these fukkin pathetic ab's

Between him and Uggla Braves have some ugly money on the books going forward

He's fast. Most teams have somebody that can can snag bags leading off.

this. You see this in baseball from adult league all the way to little league.

black kids always get put in the lead off spot. I think coaches do it to intimidate the opposition.

When i was around 13 we were playing a kid who threw about 80ish when pitching, this day he was behind the plate. One of our guys tried to steal 3rd, he beams it to 3rd...3rd baseman gets fukking domed. Ambulance etc kid was in hospital a few days. Being from Brownsburg kids are usually pretty good but this 3rd baseman, meh (Drew Storen, Tucker Barnhart, Lance Lynn, Gordon Hayward, Chris Jones) Anyways, moral of the story, that creates a large amount of intimidation seeing that.
