That's a pretty good way to dispose of a body and let the stadium's overpriced pissbeer destroy the evidence. I'll have to remember that one next time. :shifty:
In Chicago, McDonald flushed them at a White Sox game, skipping Wrigley Field because the Cubs are longtime rivals of the Mets.
That's the first I've ever heard of this rivalry.
They are 2 of the 7 teams that Dave Kingman played for.
Kingman was literally the only connection I could come up with.
The answer is always LeTroy Hawkins because he pitched for every MLB, Japanese, and Mexican team during his 78 year career. (And, looking it up, he did pitch for both the Mets and Cubs.)

Stop calling yourself a racist before I have the chance to call you a racist!
If you lived in a real time zone, you'd be up on these things.
Addendum :
Sabathia said in his big league career "I've never been called the N word" anywhere but in Boston
I don't buy that. I'd accept Boston as one of the worst, if not the worst, for racial abuse from the stands, but the only place? Just off the top of my head, St. Louis and Phiadelphia have gotta be in the running.
I believe it to be possible. Boston has earned a certain rep. and I wonder if this is reflected in the fanbase at the stadium. I've observed that white people are more likely to show their racist hand around other white people.

Definitely—lily-white crowds encourages the inner Klansman. But my point is that I don't buy that Sabathia's never heard it at any other ballpark. He never heard it in St. Louis? Racist fans ain't confined to Fenway even if they feel comfortable there.

I like this tweet
Jose Bautista just presented a motion for a base hit. The Judge denied his request.
And 2 more homers.

Not to mention the TV he destroyed in one of the left-center field concourse bars with a batting practice moonshot. He's not going to slug .800 all season, but he's cut his strikeout rate in half from last year so his floor still puts him in the driver's seat for RoY. I've heard Judge compared to a five-tool Frank Howard with his speed/agility in the field, but that's hardly accurate as he's nearly 30 lbs. heavier than Hondo was and is still too young and lanky to have filled out with muscle. Holy fuck what a jackpot.

Who better than an old white guy to reject a black person's claim of racism? Why, it's almost like that kneejerk denial is part of the structure of racism!

The Rockies have, uh, been kind of fun to watch so far this season.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!
