and the winning is way more fun than the losing.
Someone needs to put it into writing.
The Tampa Bay Rays acknowledge that Benny Boo Boo Zobrist is the team’s official good luck charm. With his new reddish beard, he even resembles an overgrown leprechaun. He has a way of righting the ship. Therefore as long as he doesn’t start sucking real bad he must remain with the team at all costs. Management will review his good luck charm status on a regular basis. Getting picked off of first is generally frowned upon, however due to the nature of the grand slam we will let him off with a warning this time.
Troy Percival and Dan Wheeler will be required to sit next to Ben in the dugout, listening to his wife’s music on their ipods, until they are needed in the bullpen. The Gabe’s will be required to come up with a plethora of minor ailments so that Zobrist gets more starts.
Let’s ride this wave for all it’s worth.
Go Rays!!
