Caption Contest Number 3

Postby GloveCrazy » June 13th, 2010, 9:02 pm

The first two were a good start, but let's see if we can get more people involved in this one. I don't know the individuals involved in the photo ... let me know if you know more about it. Also, send any other caption candidates to glovecrazy@aol.com.

Higgins needs to review his umpire school notes (reminds me of last year's -- or any -- Angels/Yankees series)

Wind Beneath My (S)Wings - Bette Midler
Sultan of Swing - Dire Straits

"Somebody ring the tardy bell" Just a LITTLE BENCH jockeying.

5 of the Pittsburgh Six held their breath as Aldrich was given the green lantern to swing away.

And with that final Swing the Jiffy Pop cap was put to rest.
