It's as comforting as that 15 year old t-shirt that you just can't throw away even though it's ratty and full of holes

But it is so soft and the smell is just right.

I'm seriously hoping that's the fresh scent of Downy you're talking about

New trick, same old dog.

In the recap video of the Howard ejection then defensive switcheroo, they showed a few seconds of Ibanez warming up at first.

In those brief few seconds of footage, he fielded a ball and then lost it behind himself trying to make the transfer.

Hell yeah he did

I thought Mike Sweeney was the Philies 1B.

Does this mean that hugs don’t win baseball games?

Nor defense apparently

They must have liften him for a pinch-hugger in extras.

I miss Sweeney.

Looking forward to seeing his updated UZR at 1B when Fangraphs updates.

Oh man three years ago we wanted this so hard

I always enjoy watching Major League baseball players fail to field balls that my 12 year old self could field in his sleep.
