Nationals Postscript

The timing of my previous post proved to be ominous with the big news of today.

I'm just really pleased with Yahoo! Sports' obviously intentional photographic journalism.


Just how many Nationals fans do you think wish that baseball was one tenth of a second from smashing into his skull? He doesn't even look to be aware of his fate; he's just going to get a blindside cold cock.

When the picture is clicked to enlarge it, his hand is revealed to be simply flipping the ball up in the air. How convenient a crop job, Yahoo. Kudos for capturing the ire for a man previously considered fire-proof.
