Minor League/Japanese Wackiness

[TimLivingston]

19 pages and over a decade of content, including a book written about the team independent league team I worked for, trips to Korea AND Japan for baseball, and my time with the Blue Jays beforehand and I haven’t posted in this thread yet.

 

Feels like diving towards the ocean and missing water completely.

I even missed the naming of the Montgomery BISCUITS!!!

 

Chuck Knoblauch didn’t have as many unforced errors, jeez.

 

EDIT: I guess I posted about the Stompers in 2015 one time about the book project and then became a ghost?

Sean had a bunch of funkiness to him. Essentially a slider that no righty saw. Was an amazing performance. A joy to call on the radio. 
 

The next year, he unfortunately arrived out of shape and took a long time to even really get going, then ended up having some injury issues and was ineffective. Sonoma DID win the title that year, however. 
 

The way back machine has officially been engaged.

Ever since he wore that damn belt in the All-Star game that year.

Dunno if the Baystars are actually going to battle without honor or humanity this season though. Seems like it would be against the rules.

I love that stadium. BayStars know how to put on a show.

Y'all remember that laughing horse from the Pink Panther cartoon?

Cause that's the exact sounds I made when I read Bauer's line.
