Piggybacking on to the thoughts about how the Braves suck and how I now hate them, I remembered something over the weekend that drew a little bit of ire and angst that felt like it could ignite some words to be blurted out onto the ‘ol brog.
Long story short, a team consisting of 90% B-team Major League Baseball scrubs got no-hit in a game against a team of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball all-stars.
Let me rephrase this: MLB All-Star team gets no-hit by NPB All-Star team.
Now let me rephrase it again to be more accurate: MLB scrub team gets no-hit by NPB All-Star team.
Suffice to say, this is something that should be perceived as absolutely embarrassing. If I were the NPB All-Stars, I wouldn’t even take joy in this beyond the fact that they pitched a combined no-hitter, because even they had to realize that they were playing against MLB’s B-squad.
