Josh Reddick’s thought process during this at-bat against the Tigers last night probably went a little something like this:
“Okay, here comes the pitch…right in my wheelhouse….gonna crush this into the seats.”
*Vicious swing and a miss*
“SHIT! I struck out. Damnit, it would have been so cool if I homered there. I’m really mad. Stupid bat!”
*Smacks bat*
“Wait, I can still look cool if I do an awesome bat flip on my way to the dugout! Yeah, that’d be sweet!”
*Flips bat*
“Now I just gotta catc-OW MY SHOULDER! DAMNIT. SHIT. Play it cool, nobody saw.”
We saw, Josh. We saw.
