Trot Nixon's thought process as he makes this catch:
"Bases loaded. Bases loaded. He's hittin' it hard, he's goin' for broke. Look alive, Trotter. It's comin' out. It's comin' out.
Pat the hat. Pat the hat. Sticky hands, Trotter, sticky hands.
OK OK OK OK pitch comin' OK OK.
GO TENSE.
Foul. Arright loosen up, Trotter, loosen up. He's lookin' to go big. He's lookin' wall. You got the wall. You got the wall covered.
Look at Johnny where's Johnny find Johnny he's over there. He's over there. You got this much ground to cover, Trotter. Got that figured.
OK OK OK OK pitch comin' OK OK.
GO TENSE.
WOAH IT'S COMIN' YOUR WAY YOU GOT THIS ONE TROTTER TURN AROUND TURN AROUND IT'S GOIN' WALL RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN.
WHERE'S THE BALL WHERE'S THE BALL OK SEE IT SEE IT SEE IT.
GOT IT GOT IT IT'S GOIN' WALL OK OK JUMPJUMPJUMP!Woah hey BANG.
That was the wall hey ow. Ow.
Throw it in throw it in throw it in bases loaded bases loaded.
Hey OK only one run that's cool that's cool Bronson's got it we got it. Sticky hands, Trotter. Patted the hat.
Point at Johnny. Point at Johnny. Ha ha yeah whoo! Good catch, Trotter. Good catch."
Also, David Ortiz smashing two out of the park? Manny going yard yet again? Mmm. Offense. Spicy goodness. Millwood certainly had his struggles, but I have to say that, early on, there were a few pitches that looked like strikes to me but were called balls. Mind you, I'm not complaining. I'm just saying.
Oh, and how embarassing must it be to have that Chief Wahoo cartoon on your hat? I mean, you can take real pride in having the classic Boston B or the ornate Detroit D, or even the spidery New York NY, if you're a sick bastard who takes pleasure in that kind of stuff. Even the Tampa Bay devil ray is classier than that weird, goofy, vaguely racist Wahoo thing.
You hear guys say they're proud to wear the Boston B on their hats. I just have a hard time seeing someone say they're terribly proud to be able to wear the maniacal Chief Wahoo.
