Back Back Back...to the Majors

Word on the street...(ok, word from every major news outlet)... is that former pitching phenom Rick Ankiel will start right field tonight. Wonder who they're sending down to bring him up...

Update: He returned, he played, he conquered. Ankiel returned with a bang, literally, hitting a 3 run shot to help the Cards down the Padres. They're all saying it, but this is better than a movie. Who would believe this comeback in a film? We'd think it was too unrealistic or corny. But it's true. Good for Ankiel.

Two overlooked important developments. Piniero pitched a scoreless game to help his team beat Chris Young, the owner of the best ERA in the majors. Also, Scott Spiezio was put on the restricted list due to substance abuse problems. Such a dichotamy of emotions in this game.

No comments:

Like everyone else, I am going to die. But the words – the words live on
for as long as there are readers to see them, audiences to hear them. It is
immortality by proxy. It is not really a bad deal, all things considered.
