Welcome to the show, kid … er … adult
Aside from eating, sleeping and playing videogames there aren’t too many things I loved to do six years ago that I’m still doing now.
Baseball? Like most, my career ended at high school graduation. Hanging out with my freinds? Gas is much to expensive to drive around and no friend is worth more than $4 a gallon. Blogging? Unfortunately it didn’t exist six years a go, but I’d like to believe I’d still be doing it.
So give credit to Micah Hoffpauir, who has spent the last six years in the Cubs’ minor league system before being called up to the show Sunday afternoon.
The lefty struck out against a left-handed pitcher during his pinch-hit appearance Sunday, but I like to believe he’ll carve out a niche for himself and, whether it be in Chicago or somewhere else, he’ll stay in the Big Leagues for a while.
