Over the weekend "BillPickle" sent me the following item related to the Cardinals:
Maybe the Cardinals need a Bull Durham moment. Of course since Tony and half the team speak Spanish, he and Jose Oquendo's exchange would be something like this*:
Tony: Usted tipos. Usted lollygag la pelota alrededor del terreno central. Usted lollygag su manera hacia abajo a primero. Usted lollygag en y fuera de la trinchera. ¿Usted sabe lo que que hace usted? ¡Jose!
Jose: ¡Lollygaggers!
Tony: Lollygaggers!
Tony: Jose, lo que es nuestro registro?
Jose: 16 y 23
Tony: 16 y 23, ¿Cómo ganaríamos nosotros 16?
Jose: Es un milagro
Tony: Es un milagro
*Apologies for the translation. I just ran the text through an online translation service.
SOUTHLANDISH: At this point I fear that if La Russa threw the bats at the team in the shower, most of them would wonder what these strange wooden objects were.
