This has never been true before, but it is now. *I* can play baseball just as well as THAT GUY. Hey, Wilpons! (forcefully whistles) I'll play for HALF of what you pay THAT GUY!

I need more tissues.
That was the guy who tried to steal third with no outs in the ninth inning, down by one run. Even my wife gasped at that one - apparently she does listen to me talking to myself about baseball - for here is someone who appears so sophisticated and cool to be wearing a sliding glove on one hand, and then proceeds to violate one of the basic rules of base running!
