Just Act Naturally

The Sox lose 10-6 with a weak outing by B.K. Kim …

Mike:
This team named after the indigenous peoples of the Americas is starting me on a trail of tears.

Susan:
Sending McCarty to the plate against a Major League pitcher is like sending Custer to Wounded Knee. A massacre waiting to happen.

 

---

Mike:
As horrible as the lineup is, 6 runs should win the game. B.K. is awful right now. At 82 MPH, his fastball is becoming an oxymoron. The Cleveland Native Americans are hitting it like a slow ballon.

 

---

Susan:
Kim is a definite maybe. But is he old news?

 

---

Mike:
As a starter he is found missing. A tragic comedy.

 

---

Susan:
[Laughs] I'm clearly confused. Is he hurt? Or did the Red Sox just spend $10 million for pickled cabbage?

 

---

Mike:
Bring on Arroyo! And bring on the memories of the beatings my mother used to give me.

Author's Notes:
It's an open secret that the character dialog is riddled with oxymoron examples.
