Scoob Ks the side in the 5th. Nice. That near 30 pitch inning is really unfortunate in retrospect. His pitch count now is decent, but it would be astounding if not for that inning.
I could’ve sworn I’d seen him wear it on at least another occasion before that most recent players weekend. But I wouldn’t want to bet my life on it. It’s just that when I saw it most recently I wasn’t surprised.
By the way, is Dingler’s absolutely awesome helmet worn only on special occasions? Of course, I guess if he wore it every day that would destroy the dignity of the game, unlike gambling.
One of my old buds from Detroit that I met in Tucson ended up moving down to Clearwater, Florida. And he likes Tropicana Field and is forgiving of all its deficits because the heat and humidity is insufferable and it’s comfortable inside. He also says he’s never had a problem getting a ticket.
