a nod back to the old Disney daze...

Cueto and Scrabble.
Giants now have solid staff.
Posey hugs coming.


Pagan to left field.
Span playing center field now.
Blanco? Still no love.


First came twenty-ten.
Twelve and fourteen followed suit.
Is sixteen next up?

Knocks, jacks, and goners,
A Cubs homerun derby
Outside the parkers,
By Rizzo and Schwarby

If you play us for pennants, it’s going to sting
These are a few of my favorite dings

Heyward and Zobrist,
Will hit all your Aces
Then Bryant comes up,
To clear all the bases

If you serve up the ball, the fat lady sings
These are a few of my favorite dings

In October, when the wind stings,
You’ll be feeling baaaad
I simply remember my favorite dings
And then I feel soooo glaaaad.

Miggy Montero
Can hit the “jonron”
Addison Russell
Will follow with bombs

Jorge Soler will look good with a ring
These are a few of my favorite dings

Quadruples and ding dongs,
Bud bleachers get loud
“Ho!-Ly!-Cow!”
Heard from the clouds

Epstein and Maddon will win us some bling
These are a few of my favorite dings

I always think of his name as one syllable. It's very Jewish that way.

Unless you are posting a very strange double play scoring. "Lined, off Duffy's glove, but Blanco gets it, and throws to Crawford to double off the runner! WOW!!!"

I always read his name as tee-zill. Maybe you are right and it is just zill (hard Z-sound)

It could be a bunt on a broken hit-n-run.

Runners on 1st and 2nd. Hit-n-run is called, but the batter misreads the sign to be a bunt. Duffy, knowing the game as he does, catches this and signals to Blanco pre-pitch to cover third. Duffy charges in and swirls to throw to Blanco at third. The runner at first was shocked by the bunt attempt and paused between 1st and second, giving Blanco time to throw to Crawford who had moved to 2B to cover the back end of the double-steal.

5-7-6.
