[a little elbow grease]

I just thought I'd put this on this baseball thread...... so I apologize in advance if it's not on topic ....... except for it's about the great game of baseball.

I’m a 72 year old baseball guy. I’m watching my Pirates who are one of the worst teams in the majors, and certainly the STUPIDEST. They have had 17 runs scored against them twice in the last four games. HEROIC! Almost like football scores. lol

Nevertheless, I’ve been laboring through watching the game today and here comes the SWEET PART, THE VERY SWEET PART.

Ready? Okay.

Steve Blass (1971 World Series game #7 complete game winning pitcher against the Baltimore Orioles), now doing color on Pirate games, ….today commenting on a broken/shattered bat swing early in this game -— 7/7/18.

HERE COMES!!!!!!

Steve’s comment:

"I LOVE THAT SOUND OF A BROKEN BAT. I LIKE IT SO MUCH ..... I MADE IT MY RING TONE ON MY CELL PHONE".

LMAO

Ha. The funniest part about broken bats is if the ballpark is really rocking with noise a power hitter puts this tremendous swing on the ball and the outfielder is still going back when it bloops in.
