Does the human element include watching Davis try to hit? Dehumanizing if you ask me.

Learn to multi-task.  I don't think I've watched an entire Davis at bat all season.

Yep, baseball wouldn't be baseball without that devastating called 3rd strike 6 inches off the plate.

That's pretty much me every time Davis comes up to bat.

For the season, Davis has 33 Walks, 3 Hit-by-Pitches, ans 3 Sacrifice Flies.

So it is possible that you have watched an entire Davis Plate Appearance without necessarily having watched an entire Davis At-Bat.

I do try and tune in if I think he's going to get on via HBP.

Ump show.

I'm against the Umpires BTW. They should be at best nameless. And they should get no TV screen time. No Mr. Ed Hochuli behind the plate. No crew chief Robert Keeshan.

This was a fun HBP to tune in to.

The Tony Fernandez home run still hurts 22 years later.

Seriously, weams, that should have had a trigger warning. Visions of Grissom, Fernandez, Mesa, and Armando  Benitez are in my brain now.

Fernandez could not hit Benitez’s fastball, and Benitez threw a breaking pitch that Fernandez crushed. At least that is how I remember it.

I was the biggest Marlins fan in the 1997 World Series. For me the 1997 Orioles are the best squad since 1983 team.

I actually don't remember those unis, which remind me more of the WSox than the Orange & Black, of course.

This clip reminds me of why I'm not as negative about Belle's time in Baltimore as many other posters seem to be. He was an extremely determined player, a warrior on a team that also had Cal. I almost wonder if he was faking not getting HBP so that he could have a chance to wreak vengeance on the Angels with his 4th homer of the game--or to accomplish something like Frank did when he hit the ball completely out of Memorial Stadium after Tiant had dusted him twice.
