Okay, so I'm watching the Dodgers game last night, and they collected a win against the Mets 4-1, at the Stadium. But what grabbed my attention were three dingers on three pitches by the Dodgers, taking them to a 3-1 lead in the third inning.
But it was the pitcher, Hong-chih Kuo, who hit the third of those homers, who really made me jump from my seat. On his first pitch, he knocked a no-doubter into the right-field seats.
Was it because three jacks in a row? No.
Was it because Kuo was the first Taiwanese player to hit a homer? No.
Was it because it was Kuo's second career base bit? No.
It was the fact that he flippeed his bat the way Barry Bonds would, as if he'd done this a hundred times before!
Well done, Kuo. Just keep up the good work!
About Me
- Rob
- Well, I'm happily divorced. I grew up in SoCal, then spent a large chunk of my life in Nebraska (Go Huskers!). While living in the Cornhusker State, I earned a degree in Broadcasting and became a radio DJ. That lasted about nine years, till Management let me seek my next opportunity elsewhere. Well, after over three years(!) of fruitless searching, I came to grips with reality and I am now back in California, and I am once again trying to gain a toehold in the job market.
