This is amazing.

0 for 49.

That's hard to do!

Being a baseball mystic and guru today I am going to send my special personal baseball vibrations to Chris Davis in order for him to get some hits and get his mind right..... and END this ignoble streak.

Now, if the manager plays Chris tonight we'll be in business.

That chorus of boos which are now accompanying each at bat will soon disappear into Baltimore’s Inner Harbor.

In order for these vibes to work at their highest and immediate efficiency, if anyone should talk with Chris today before tonight's game, let him know the vibes are heading his way and that he should let 'em in.

*********

These vibes worked pretty well back in October of 1960 for Bill Mazeroski.

Can’t even hear the boos because there was less than 7,000 people there last night at game @ Camden Yards

well, for $20mil + per year one could expect extra efforts to improve performance or luck, whatever it takes.

It would be a public service if the streak continued indefinitely.

Then no future baseball players would have to suffer like this! ;-)

Since he’s no longer President David Palmer he now possesses children and speaks through them about insurances.

I gotta say ...... LSD is much better for a pitcher than a hitter.

I’ll bet that’s true. I could have thrown a ball, but to hit it with a melting bat would be problematic.

He needs to go home for a few days, visit his high school baseball coach, go watch a couple of little league games and come back with a new perspective. For Chris, the game is probably no longer fun and he is taking the grown up approach to resolving his issues at the plate.

I believe he forgot that this is a kids game, it’s supposed to be fun and he is needlessly stressing. Guy is making millions a year. Just go out and have fun. Look at the opposing pitchers as pitchers who you played against in high school.
