... Jose Lima’s history behind the mic is well documented thanks to his wife’s cans. Just think, a baseball player singing the anthem without giant implants next to him isn’t really a story. Anyway, Lima just can’t get away from singing and is even doing it on the road as a member of the Long Beach Armada baseball team. That’s right. Lima is still playing and even performs between innings for fans. ...

Hahaha, nice package, Jose. When Jim Thome finally retires, The Dugout (if we're still doing it by then, hopefully getting paid 20 grand a Dugout by Time Magazine) will surely give him an emotionally poignant farewell.
