Halama
Did I really just see John Halama give up a home run to Greg Maddux? That's got to be one of the worst feelings in the world for a pitcher, like if a goalie in hockey had the other goalie score on them. And I know Maddux has always been a decent hitter for a pitcher, but he's about 59 years old.
Oh well. Halama's the subject of one of my favorite one-liners. I was watching a game on TV with my friend Herman a few years back, and Halama was doing mop-up duty for whatever team he playing for at the time. Herman: "Halama? That sounds like a Greek side dish. Like, 'I went to a Greek restaurant today and they had the best halama. I got it with falafel.'"
Hey, another home run allowed by Halama. Maybe Dusty Baker's kid should go up and take a couple cuts.
