Doesn't look like the funky delivery fooled Abreu that time

Kilby should have hidden the ball better
Because throwing it was a bad idea.

Here's my proposal:
Bring in HRod, and have him throw one of his 100 mph heaters at the 2B ump. His control is bad enough that he can claim it was an accident.
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
He'd probably throw a strike by mistake.

Kilby is wearing a blue hat with RH on it on Gameday

oh yeah, so at the Tour de Fat in GGP, which was ostensibly an excuse for fancy dress
There was some kid there in a Vladamir Guerrero CAPE
yeah, it was a lot of fun
the same weather that has turned my appartment into a firepit made for a pleasant afternoon
i went to the brewery in ft collins when i visited my sister
the employees had all their bikes parked in front
At least Texas is winning
A Rangers win guarantees the slegnA will not clinch against the A’s tomorrow.

What happened?
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
Tebow was sacked...
….and his head hit a Florida player’s knee on the way down.
He spent a few minutes out cold and then got up and walked off the field but didn’t return to the game (and was carted off to the hospital before it was over).

Yeah, but still
I’d assume the equivalent LB or DB on the blitz in the NFL would weigh another 15 pounds, and be faster.
Even really talented RBs careers fall apart after 5 or 6 years all the time because of the pounding they take. It’s not as big a deal for them because if they’re talented they can contribute as rookies. But it might take a QB 3 or 4 years to figure out how to read defenses, etc — if he’s all beaten up by the age of 28 he’s not much good to his team.
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
He got nailed from a blitzing OLB. Didn't see it coming.
On the way down hit his head on his own player. Concussion they are saying
