video: America’s Greatest Pastime indeed!
Phillies outfielder Matt Stairs’ comments after a game-winning home run against the Dodgers a week ago Monday, saying how it was a top pinch-hit moment for him:
When you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout and you’re getting your ass hammered by guys — there’s no better feeling than to have that done.
While I’d love to have made that up… seriously, that’s what he said:
And here I always thought baseball was kinda boring! Maybe I need to rethink my position. Sounds like Matt’s making his position pretty clear, though.
