Point of order. The bullpen does not actually have a mound in it. I looked that up because I wasn’t sure, and I’d like to request that “Pitcher’s rubber” be folded into the “Pitcher’s mound” response.
Wow! The last feud I did was a while ago, and I came in dead last. This time I’m #4, best finish ever! Maybe I should get back in the game? Or quit while I’m ahead?
Well, it doesn’t matter what is actually in the bullpen, it’s what the contestants say that counts as a match. And I waffled about the mound and the pitcher’s rubber (that sounds dirty!), but ultimately decided that they weren’t the same thing.
I think some people confused the bullpen with the dugout. (Sunflower seeds in the bullpen?)
Like me, for example.
Also, it depends what bullpen you’re looking at. The bullpens at Turner Field in Atlanta each have two mounds, one each for righties and lefties. The bullpens at AAA Knights Stadium here in Charlotte* each have a mound.
- actually Fort Mill, SC.
