Big Hand. Big. Giant. Hand.
Big hand here.
What say you bullpen? Yea, or nay?
The yeas have it! It is a BIG. GIANT. HAND.
Four-Eared Man!
What? What?! WHAT?! WHAT?!!!
The Lizard People Are Among Us
All hail our Reptilian overlords!
One thing is for certain: there is no stopping them. The reptiles will soon be here. And I, for one, welcome the Annunaki to our humble stadium. I’d like to remind them that as a trusted sports photographer, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground lizard caves.
Dead Frog
Dead frog! Just a picture of a dead frog I found by Prospect Lake while shooting the balloon fest –
And here’s a flaccid balloon from said fest –
Enjoy.
Sweatpants Santa
Look Kids! It’s Santa Claus!
Oh! That jolly old elf was hanging out at the Sky Sox spreading some Christmas cheer in September!
Wait a minute! What the hell is Santa wearing?! Are those AND1 brand sweatpants?
Yup. Dumpy-assed AND1 sweatpants. Dammit Santa! You ain’t even trying anymore!
And that’s not even a Santa coat. That’s just a sweat shirt. My world is crumbling down around me.
Buddy the Elf was right, you truly do sit on a throne of lies Santa.
Dugout Parking Is For Kidnapper Vans Only
After failing to kidnap anyone the last time, creepy dugout ball guy was back on Saturday. This time he fancied-up the ball with a little hat:
Betcha the next time he tries he’ll just tape a puppy to the damn ball. Remember kids, nothing is free in this cruel world (except candy from strangers. That’s usually free and comes with the bonus of a ride in a bitchin’ Scooby-Doo van!)
Want Some Candy?
Want some candy? How about a baseball?
Thanks creepy dugout ball guy. Now I’m off-put. Betcha you got a real nice kidnapper van in the parking lot.
Nothing’s Faster Than A Hotdog Man
Hey. Look. It’s a hotdog man…
… And he’s running…by Keon Broxton…
…and running, in front of the Sky Sox bullpen, now with a big, red ball. Good for the hotdog man. Seems to enjoy all the space. Nice to see him so happy running, and running, and running. Godspeed hotdog man. Godspeed.
Bad Posture Spiderman
WAY TO SET A POOR EXAMPLE FOR ALL THEM NERD KIDS AT THE BALLYARD.
The Rainbow Connection
Why are there so many songs about rainbows? Hell, I don’t know. Did that damn singing frog mention gold and leprechauns? That would be a decent reason for a song about rainbows. Let’s just say he was singing about last night’s 7-1 Sky Sox victory over the Reno Aces, or more accurately, about the 1:31 rain delay in the top of the 4th inning that was just chock full of rainbows, and lightning, and talk of pots-o-gold & leprechauns, and stuff.
And it’s landing right in the middle of Security Service Field at Mile High!
I think I see a leprechaun, but that doesn’t look like a pot-o-gold.
That looks like a big metal tube.
And that’s no leprechaun! It’s Sox outfielder Michael Reed!
He only looks like a leprechaun because he has a red beard.
Michael Reed says, “Top o’ the mornin’ to ya! And stay away from me Lucky Charms!”
Happy Father’s Day From Darth Vader
Whatcha doing Darth?
Oh nothing. You know, just scaring babies and stuff.
Luke: No. No. That’s not true. That’s impossible!
Vader: Search your feelings; you know it to be true.
Luke: NOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOO!!!
Cosmic Tumblers Have Clicked Into Place
“There comes a time when all the cosmic tumblers have clicked into place and the universe opens itself up a few seconds to show you what’s possible.” Terrance Mann, Field of Dreams
The cosmic tumblers click for me tonight – Bad posture? Check. Mouth-breathing? Check. Fondling a ball? Check. What we have here is perhaps the world’s most perfect picture. I rock!
And, and! I also got the headshot I’ve been chasing for over a month!
The mouth should only be one part of the equation.
If you build it, they will DERP.
Game of Thornburgs
The Sky Sox are back in town starting tonight as they take on the Sacramento River Cats. Tyler Thornburg on the hill for the Sox. Game time is 705pm.
After the game there will be a ’80’s Hair Metal Band Firework Extravaganza! Where members of Poison and Warrant will take the field and have a duel to the death armed only with Roman candles and bottle rockets. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!
Tan Frío. No Me Gusta El Frío.
Stupid April. As you can see below it’s been too cold for baseball.
Good news is it’s suppose to get warmer sometime before next winter.
