Give and Take

Alex Skunch

A snippet of dialogue from the cheap seats* at last night’s Twins game.

wadE: “Who’s that #75 down in the bullpen?”
Alex (helpfully): “That’s the bullpen catcher.”
wadE (exasperated): “Yeah, but what’s his name?!”
Wade and Alex (in unison): “Amundson.”
wadE: “Ah yeah. It wasn’t coming to mind. Didn’t he explore the South Pole?”
Alex (chuckling): “Yes.”
Wade (deadpan): “Is that a euphemism for butt sex?”

Yes, we’re idiots.

*Actually the seats were really nice, courtesy of Michelle and her friend in the Royals’ front office (thanks!). However, any seats where we reside are by default the cheap seats.

    I think I’m most suprised that you knew the bullpen catcher’s name. The rest of it doesn’t really faze me…
