On this Sunday, his struggle is disturbed by an invitation to attend an unavoidable family obligation - the place Sid grew up in is about to be sold, and his mother wants him to come home for a small party so he can say goodbye to it. In order to pay the bills, he needs to think up a story and apply for a grant - the deadline is today - a lazy Sunday in the middle of summer. After losing the game, a small group of Cardinals veterans allegedly snuck Fowler out of the team hotel (breaking COVID protocol but in the name of baseball purity so it’s fine), and threw him into Lake Michigan.Sid is a writer struggling with writer's block, attempting to recapture the feelings of inspiration he felt when he was younger. Dylan Carlson grounded into a fielder’s choice before Dexter Fowler struck out in five pitches. Louis Cardinals managed to load the bases against Cubs starter, Yu Darvish. Last time this was seen: August 18, 2020.
Rule #5: If a batter strikes out with the bases loaded, that player but immediately be thrown into a lake after the game. Yip was said to have reenergized “GiGi” with youth and the two were married for the next 35 years. Yip, being the traditionalist that he is, married Grover’s mom, Gertrude, as she had been a widow for the previous five years. Backup catcher for the Brooklyn Tip-Tops, Yip Owens, pinch hit for regular backstop, Grover Land, and was struck by a pitch, injuring his elbow and missing the rest of the season.
Last time this was seen: September 10, 1914. Rule #4: If a pinch hitter is injured during an at bat, the player he was pinch hitting for must marry the closest single female relative of the pinch hitter. Last time this was seen: I think you know this one. In return, the players should serve no formal punishment. Rule #3: If a team is caught illegally stealing signs through the use of technology, the team must throw the manager/general manager under the bus and act like they had nothing to do with it and that it didn’t actually help them. Haywood would go on to strike out in the at bat and send an, unheard of, fifteen unfamiliar infants to bed that night. The gamesmanship worked as Sullivan crushed a seventh consecutive spit ball 480’ from home plate, but just outside the foul pole. Knowing the unwritten but super official and in no way dumb rules of baseball, the Yankees began crying like babies to get into Haywood’s head. Sullivan proceeded to fight off six consecutive spit balls from Yankees reliever, Tex Clevenger.
Kansas City A’s catcher, Haywood Sullivan, stepped to the plate with a full count, two outs, and the bases juiced. One night is added for every foul ball after seven. Rule #2: In a bases loaded, full count, and two outs situation, if the batter has seven consecutive foul balls, he must put the babies of the entire team to bed that night. After, Dickerman finished the day with a complete game shutout of the Senators after throwing 178 pitches on the day. Despite the added accessory, Dickerman threw over a seventh time and successfully picked Harris off. Once Harris made it back successfully the 6th time, he jumped up in celebration as the Cardinals’ veteran catcher, Mike Gonzalez, helped Dickerman to remove his jock strap and cup and securely fashion it around his neck. Louis Cardinals pitcher, Leo Dickerman, heard those reports and decided to keep Harris honest with six consecutive throws over. Washington Senator’s second baseman, Bucky Harris, led off the 4th inning with a bunt single (old school small ball!!!) and his speed was no secret, especially when he had just told reporters prior to the game that he was going to steal four bases that day. Rule #1: If a pitcher attempts to pick off a runner six consecutive times without success, he must remove his athletic supporter from his pants and wear it around his neck for the remainder of the game. So I gathered up the craziest ones and packaged them together for you here along with the last time the rare occurrences happened.
So that got me thinking about the other unwritten rules of baseball and boy did I find some doozies in my research. y68zDQW8dS- Danny Vietti August 18, 2020
Here's a thought: how about you learn how to not give up 14 runs and not give up 7 RBI to a kid who can barely legally buy a beer. The Rangers just threw behind a Padres hitter because the previous hitter (Fernando Tatis Jr.) hit a granny on 3-0.
