Nothing was better than Lofton’s second AB. Men on first and second, no outs. Kenny BUNTS!!! For a fucking hit!!! I thought Wedge might pull him right there. After the gane, Wedge said to Lofton: “We don’t pull that Boolah Boolah College baseball, Charlie Hustle bunt shit around here, kid”. Wedge was then reminded that he and Lofton were the same age. “Alright then…man to man..I want you to take a long look at yourself, and write down 100 reasons why bunting was a good idea. When you can’t, I want you to write “I will NOT bunt men into scoring position” 500 times in the locker room in front of a naked Casey Blake”.

My sources tell me that Lofton was long gone while Wedge stammered out his orders, listening to rap music on his personal Bose sound system.

At first, Kenny appeared non plussed at getting pied in his post game interview. Oddly enough, Trot Nixon hit EVERYTHING last night, including the pie, which virtually killed Lofton’s microphone.

Meanwhile, Casey Blake was in awe of Lofton’s performance:”What was that he did in the third inning? He just stuck his bat out and chopped at it. We ain’t seen THAT before, except when the other team does it. I hear it has Swedish origins…I think it’s called boonting. Rouse told me he tried to boont once, but got hit in the hands. It takes real coordination to boont, I guess. Plus our third base coach doesn’t speak Swedish, so we never really hear about it.”

The Twins 3rd baseman reminded me of Carlos Baerga playing third, except this guy doesn’t even have the “I got drunk partying last night” excuse. If he’s at third again today, I think we may see more boonting.
