Jack Cust, back to the bigs!

[BRobinsonfan]

Ah yes... the one they call "Cust" goes to Oakland... and the one called "Knott" comes back for his revenge... I foresaw this... it is DESTINY.

The two dejected AAAAers will lead their respective teams in OPS, HR, and RBI. In the ALCS, they will meet upon the pitching mound at Oriole Park, whereupon they will kung fu fight for 40 days and 40 nights to determine who is the better of the all-hit no-field semi-major leaguers. Only after Cust trips over his own shoelaces will Knott vanquish him with his Splintered Bat of a Thousand Doubles. Orioles win the Series 3-2.

Hyena of hate (see above)

Started in Left Field (so not just as a DH), and he did what he always does... XBH, K, BB...

And played right field as well - no errors - not bad for DH. I always thought he was the type of player Billy Bean would like.

Not to ruin your creative writing assignment here, but weren't those stats guys on your side?

Yes we were - By suggesting otherwise, Custer has stumbled awkwardly in his narrative like a clumsy runner rounding first.

Or a clumsy runner stumbling towards home.

If we let the ride to destiny of The Mighty Cust degenerate into another tedious stat food fight, the magic of The Mighty Cust will be lost forever.

Baseball is a story........not a math quiz.

For a poet, you sure do utilize poor sentence construction. How about "If we let The Mighty Cust's ride to destiny..."?

Too bad sales to the intentionally derisive and the ignorant (mostly willful) aren't restricted.

Please stop spewing your "misinformation fueled" hostility.

Obviously he is an Artist, who are you to question his prose?
