The Hatred and Hilarity in Game One of the 2009 World Series
— sox35th.com — I. I love love LOVE when they show Nick Swisher’s numbers for the 2009 season, but I hold an extra-special fondness for the context Joe Buck et al either refuse to admit or simply would rather ignore. Example: Nick Swisher was second in the American League in walks with 91, which is a ... (more) The Hatred and Hilarity in Game One of the 2009 World Series
