Dynomite: so I want my curve to go 10 feet above the batter's head and swoop down across the plate in a big arc?

LoewenInYellowCoats: right, and you want to throw that pitch every single time you have a chance to strike somebody out. That way, the batter knows exactly what you're gonna throw and how you're gonna throw it.

Dynomite: /stares at television

these Gregg Olson tapes sure are confusing

LoewenInYellowCoats: Ha, well, the VCR just ate the tape at the last minute, so now you'll never know how to Blow Relief The Baltimore Orioles Way!

would you jabrones quiet down in there, Old Man Miller's trying to sleep in the next room. you could at least close the door

Dynomite: Ray Miller's still here?

LoewenInYellowCoats: Yeah, but he mostly just sleeps, ever since our pitching gave him an aneurysm.

People tend to stick around here, I dunno. Hey, Chito Martinez mows our grass, you wanna meet him?

MillarsCrossing: I don't know why you're bothering with "studying," you're going to lose games here whether you've got a goofy curveball or not.

MillarsCrossing: the air quotes "boss" end air quotes doesn't want to spend any money getting us a quality bullpen, so we get stuck with a nervous tween trying to close up after Danys friggen Baez.

MillarsCrossing: This never happened in Boston. Boston was like, infinity on high. We gave 10 mil a year to Pedro's Dr. Moreau midget.

LoewenInYellowCoats: oh shut up, we'd have money for free agents if we didn't have to spend it all on your safety equipment

This_Cabrera:
yeah dude, seriously, how much shit do you need to wear on your arm

MillarsCrossing: What? This?

Dynomite: how many sweatbands are you wearing at once? are you fertilizing a sheep?

LoewenInYellowCoats: haha, and you've got an orange Allen Iverson sleeve and an elbowpad, and a batting glove

If_Anything_I_Could_Say_That_
This_Cabrera:
you look like Jax from Mortal Kombat running around with all that shit on

MillarsCrossing: What? This is an arm brace! /struggles to hold arm upright

LoewenInYellowCoats: we could've had Carlos Lee, but no, Kevin Millar needed an exoskeleton

MillarsCrossing: It's an arm brace!

If_Anything_I_Could_Say_That_
This_Cabrera:
we could've gotten like nine other guys with that money. That's an entire team you're wearing.

MillarsCrossing: THIS AIN'T A TEAM, IT'S A GOD DAMN ARM BRACE!

MillarsCrossing: THIS AIN'T A TEAM, IT'S A GOD DAMN ARM BRACE!

MillarsCrossing: THIS AIN'T A TEAM, IT'S A GOD DAMN ARM BRACE!
