The Globe has a good thing going with the Extra Bases blog but adding CHB to the mix is a recipe for disaster. He tries to add some humor into the coverage when a squirrel goes on the field but screws it up and then makes fun of blogging while he was doing it:
There’s been a squirrel on the field for quite a while. He seems to have pretty good range.
Dice-K just threw his first wild pitch of the night — that’s five in two starts, but the night is young. The squirrel just moved to the warning track behind J.D. Drew. I think they hunt those in Georgia.
Dice-K just fanned Clete Thomas to end the inning (45 pitches) and groundskeepers came out to chase the critter. Little Rocky beat feet and went up the right field scoreboard. Then on to center with four guys chasing him. They herded him into the Sox bullpen, then he climbed the wall and went into some bushes…And I continue to blog. In fact, blogging is my life.
Please keep the Extra Bases blog to Adam Kilgore and Amalie Benjamin and things will be fine. CHB can go back to making up some curse involving Johnny Damon.
