We used to all move our hands side to side for it when he was a Mariner for the first time. Until they played the song four times on his bobble head night, the Seattle crowd forgot that they used to do that for pretty much every Junior AB.
The Dolphin is a new pitch that he started throwing this year.
It’s been moderately effective, and has contributed some to his improved numbers, though the defense is the biggest thing contributing to his success this year. It’s just a big 65-70 MPH breaking ball
why do you guys call him the dolphin?
-curious white sox fans want to know

It's the name of the slow curve he throws.

and thanks
e-gus - August 20, 2009
Named as such because he "flips" it out of his hand
Flip = Flipper = Dolphin. God sports nicknames are stupid.

Better then London slang.

You have been told to capitalize and not use chatspeak twice already.
You are treading on little water.
Matthew - August 20, 2009
Well, he was told in the game thread after posting this.
He posted this one at 11.
I agree with enforcing the rules, but his first warning did come after this post…
Unless his first warning wasn’t the one that came to day. In which case, ignore me.

Today.
To day?
BrettJMiller - August 20, 2009
Notes are for others as well.
Public record of enforcement so other people will stop bitching that we don’t enforce the rules with an even-hand.
Matthew - August 20, 2009
Makes sense to me.
BrettJMiller - August 20, 2009
follow up question:
why do you guys jam to naughty by nature at safeco?

Griffey's classic walk-up song.

BrettJMiller - August 20, 2009
ok so its a throw back to Griffey.
I was disturbed by the shot of the ‘dancing’ when the Sox were just out there, that explains it.

I dont think hes faster than Buehrle.
e-gus - August 20, 2009
Looking forward for thee wind assistance on hittracker for that HR.
Kamikaze!

Need a gif!
Scruffy Lefty - August 20, 2009
Trying :(
Jeff Sullivan - August 20, 2009
Nex Def is being bitch.
Wilder. - August 20, 2009
Agreed
Jeff Sullivan - August 20, 2009
B-b-b-ut
It’s unhittable! The world is ending! Sell Sell Sell!

ITS GETTING MORE PERFECT!

This game is making my pants very happy.
section331 - August 20, 2009
This is the kinda trade that will make people not trade with us
I mean seriously. When ever Z talks to someone they are going to ask the question, “How dumb is he going to make us look?”
stufr - August 20, 2009
Oh well.
Sec 108 - August 20, 2009
Apologies for size.
Matthew - August 20, 2009
That makes me so so happy.
Robert Lintott - August 20, 2009
Wonderful
gregrabble - August 20, 2009
It makes my heart smile.
BrettJMiller - August 20, 2009
So wonderful.
esoteric - August 20, 2009
So nice of Washburn to let Kenji catch one of his pitches.
Sec 108 - August 20, 2009
If better than perfect was possible this would be just that.
And size is never something to apologize for.
Big Jared - August 20, 2009
Ahahaha.
