Thanks to his white hot start to the season, Sam Fuld of the Tampa Bay Rays became an instant star.
He dominated the Twittersphere, got female fans pregnant with every diving catch and even had a night dedicated to him at Tropicana Field.
Alright…I might be partially misinformed about that “pregnant fans” part.
But one guy who always has his facts straight is Hall contributor Lou Olsen.
You remember “Sweet Lou” right? He’s the cat on loan from Reviewing the Brew that uncovered some long since lost facts about Ross Grimsley’s mustache during The Hall’s recent week-long celebration of the 40th anniversary of the pitcher’s Major League debut.
Here are ten things that he unearthed about the Rays outfielder and what exactly makes him so awesome.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that he wears sweaters, knitted out of barbed wire.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that Superman asked him to tone it back a little bit so that people would not get suspicious.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that Niagara Falls calls him ‘Sir’.

- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that his glove is made of 100% unicorn hide.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that when he calls a lady, she has to wear a prophylactic.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that he once raised Harry Caray from the dead, just to make him listen to Sam sing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”. It was so good Harry died a second time.
- Sam Fuld is so awesome, that he can smell shark fear, which he plans to launchas a men’s fragrance next summer.
