I just cannot wrap my head around the thought that 2011 Yunieski Betancourt participated in the defensive part of a triple play. That guy plays defense nowadays like a large rock rolling down a slight grade.
WILB, Part 595: I went to a single-A game the other night (go, Tri-City ValleyCats!) and saw something I'd never seen before in almost 40 years of going to ballgames: Tri-City rightfielder Drew Muren had two outfield assists in one inning -- in fact, on consecutive plays -- gunning down two Hudson Valley Renegades at home.
Coolest/weirdest thing I ever saw was Chico Walker's in the park Grand Slam against the Giants @ Candlestick in 1991. Partly, Kevin Mitchell just had a time getting the ball out of the corner in left field, but still.
