(the scene: Kitchen of FatMixx’s Connecticut HQ, early during game 6 of the 2004 ALCS. On TV, Mark Bellhorn walks to the plate)

Heidi: Who’s he?

Sujal: That’s Mark Bellhorn, the Red Sox second baseman

H: Is he good?

S: He’s alright. Better than most, but not a great hitter. He pretty much walks and strikes out. I betcha he strikes out here.

H: Oh, OK.

(Heidi leaves the room. A few minutes later, Sujal is screaming at the TV, “That’s a home run! It hit the fan in the first row!!!”)

Hmmm… I guess I probably should amend that to “walks and strikes out and hits postseason home runs” after tonight, his third straight postseason game with a home run.
