I have no idea who this guy is. But then, I’d be hard pressed to name a dozen baseball players total.
Is this really the pit?
This op deserves a pitting more than the linked op. Why prr decided to try to write a funny op is beyond me. After writing it, why hit “post” ?
WTF indeed.
Oh I got it. But there could be many reasons the OP in the link thought Bill M. is obscure. Hell, my grandfather played pro ball and I kept up with MLB quite a bit and I only vaguely know who Mazeroski is.
Regardless, even if thelabdude was talking about someone genuinely famous (and somehow didn’t realize it) that’s still not pit worthy. If the satire had actually been, you know, funny - maybe it might have worked. Maybe.
pseudotriton ruber ruber, you are a fucking idiot.
Of course he’s forgotten. You need a hook. Like Mordecai Three-Finger Brown.
PRR: What does your name mean?! 
Yeah, I’m sorry, but this is … really … really dumb. A for effort, I suppose.
Did you try Googlingit?
Sure, he was obscene, but no more than most baseball players. I mean, come on, we’ve all seen Bull Durham and read Ball Four.
I’ve read about Balfour but not Ball Four.
I was moderately expecting to see some nudes. I’m seriously disappointed.
Unlike Maz, prr failed to knock this one out of the park.
Not conservatively expecting?
Yeah, you know, the Ball Four declaration. It was where we agreed to create a homeland for horny retired ballplayers.
