Now that just about every team in Major League Baseball is doing it, this isn’t rookie hazing so much anymore as it is Halloween for first-year players. See, this is what Ken Burns was afraid to show you in The 10th Inning.
So let’s see, we have the Twins’ Jeff Manship and Drew Butera as the Ambiguously Gay Duo from Saturday Night Live (they’re a pitcher and catcher, naturally), and there’s also Trevor Plouffe, Ben Revere, Alex Burnett and, good Lord, I’m not sure who that is in the Borat mankini, but thank you for that Minnesota state logo.
ABOUT LAST NIGHT
What you missed while bowing down before the majesty of the new Carl’s Jr. foot-long burger …
* A man is suing to learn the identity of Cleveland Cavaliers mascot Moondog, who he says injured him during a game. And we now have the plot for Spider-Man 4.
* Altoona manager Matt Walbeck wins Double-A title, is promptly fired. If you guessed “Pirates affiliate,” you win.
*Anna Kournikova to appear on The Biggest Loser That works on so many levels
.

Coincidence that the front of the orange costume looks like a Y? I think not. The usual lineup for the two superhero’s in blue is A, G not G, A ; ) funny!
