You are the first player to record a Hit By Pitch and an RBI Double in the same At-Bat in baseball history.

Home Plate Umpire Fieldin Culbreth's bookies thank you. The rest of us are just disgusted.

hmmmm....

Seems like an odd way to call HBPs. Hitters try to "sell" them all the time.

Don't forget the other great call... NOT

Maicer hits one that's clearly foul... Sexson picks it up at least 4 inches foul, and he's called out at first.

Wonder if the ump had anything to do with the '72 Olympic basketball officiating?

6-5 still is good enough. (And yeah Starbucks started in Seattle, but living in OC Im sure there are as many if not more here than up there. Doesnt really work too well as an insult to Seattle, nor does the 'rain' card)

Then how about

Sasquatch drumming for your grunge band and singing about the Green River Killer while Paul Allen gives venture capital to you for an album critiquing open-source software as an affront to Dale Chihuly glassblowing all performed in the style of Paul Revere and the Raiders???????
