I agree. He looked like he wanted to go ice down his foot more than be on base.

Did you miss Wilson's in the 1st?

All time? Really?  Nothing is ever going to top Carl Everett, circa 1999.

Not good.  I cringe when he gets behind in the count.

I was thinking the same thing.  And Berkman's wasn't a whole lot better.  Falkenborg must have thrown 30 pitches that inning and probably 4 of them were strikes.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.
