Okay, I really don't have a problem with youth baseball, not a real one anyway. I just needed a title that wouldn't get this thread relocated.

I'm watching The Sandlot. Such a great movie, even today. I was wondering who is the Sandlot team's relief pitcher? Even at that level, Kenny couldn't be expected to shoulder all the innings. He would become ineffective eventually. The obvious pick would be Benny, but I'm just not buying that he could do it all at a high enough level to be the answer.

Who else? Smalls...no way. Squints? Too small. Ham could be one of those sneaky hefty pitchers that are better than you'd expect, but he'd probably have more value behind the plate. I'm thinking Timmy Timmons may be the guy. That name even sounds like a pitcher's name.

I just know that team wouldn't make it very far on the travel ball circuit without a competent reliever.

For your troubles I'll post this:

Wendy Peffercorn Then:

Wendy Peffercorn Now(ish)

Hard to argue with a guy with a name like a Civil War general.

My Jaxon threw 27 innings in one day last year in the Orange Beach World Series.

I vote for Ya-ya because he clearly started roiding up.

Bertram, supplier of the big league chew, is absolutely best suited for reliever.

It eats at you every day, doesn’t it.

Your fingers twitch every time you get a stupid thought in your oafish head, and you reach for that start thread…
It’s like the Red Button you are forbidden to touch.


But it calls to you, doesn’t it Christopher?

Every day that goes on, like the drip, drip, drip of water in a pail, your resolve erodes a little more.
You know you want to press it. The forbidden nature of it making it all that much more tantalizing.
You think “all these stupid threads and I can’t start one? Why not me? It’s not fair!”

No Christopher, it isn’t. It isn’t fair at all.

What harm could one little thread do. Surely they’d understand. Hell, they’d probably relish it. After so long…like a glass of cold water after a desert journey. You’ve so much to say…Perhaps you write your thread ideas out in a notebook and save them for that day you will make threads again.

How long can you fight the temptation? How long before you give in and push that glorious button?



Do it Christopher. Press it, start it.

Maybe just write it out and press preview. Only a taste can’t hurt. You don’t need to hit submit unless it’s a really good one.

Press the button…
