The rare true emergency C was used by Pitt today after an ejection & injury. First time he’s caught since HS.

The last true emergency catcher was Pedro Feliz with the Giants in 2007. Starting catcher Bengie Molina was removed from the game as part of a double switch, then backup Eliezer Alfonzo exited with an injury. Kevin Frandsen, the team's emergency catcher, was used as a pinch-hitter earlier in the game, so Feliz went behind the plate.

are your seasonal allergies affecting your ability to not sniffle or have watery eyes? ask your doctor if graterol is right for you. side effects of graterol include anal leakage, seizures, swelling of the genitals, nipple displasia, asthma, secondary yeast infection, and sudden death. don't take graterol if you are allergic to graterol. graterol- take your life back.

Savannah bananas. Collegiate summer team. They’ve obliterated all of that leagues attendance records and are pretty good to boot, 2 league titles in the past 5 years.

So what's up with the hijinks and assorted bullshit?  Do relief pitchers enter the game by repelling from a Blackhawk helicopter?  Do they have a guy on a unicycle juggling firesticks circling the bases between innings?  I guess this is the WWE equivalent of baseball.

They also have a Harlem Globetrotters type team, which is what that is.  Eric Byrnes, Jake Peavy, Jhohnnyh Gomes, and Bill Lee were playing for them last weekend.

The Mariners were able to dump Cano, but not all of his contract.  The Mets owe him $37.5 MM, but Seattle is still on the hook for $7.5MM.

Wow.

Hell of a career for this little guy.  Homered in his 1st ML AB, and then basically forced himself into playing time as a 4th OF in AZ, then played so well they had to start him.  Big fan favorite in both AZ and WSH, got the Rockies to pay him $26M for 3 years, and retires with a MLB pension and World Series ring.
