Josh Beckett: Slugger (and decent pitcher too!)
Most baseball games are routine. If you’re lucky you see a brawl or a walk-off home run. But on rare occasions, you get to see a play that will embarrass a player for quite possibly the rest of his career. Listening to today’s game got me thinking about the most embarrassing things that a baseball player can have happen to him. In no particular order:
Maybe if Doubles was playing today we could have seen three of these plays, but two out of four aint bad. And because it took place in Philly, Brett Myers (gave up Beckett’s homer) and Aaron Fultz (gave up Mr. Medonza Line’s homer), got the full parade of boos to remind them that they made an all-time embarrassing play.
Tomorrow DiNardo goes for the sweep. Let’s hope for one more resounding set of boos for the Phillies.
