...and it makes me wonder why Dice K always needs his interpreter to speak with the press.

 

Yeah, how do they communicate other than, fastball, change-up, slider, etc.?

This will be a tremendous humiliation for Dice K if he gets bested by his fellow countryman. Maybe he will do the honorable thing and save everyone from grappling with the 6 starter dilemma.

Does anyone else wonder what Tek says to Dice on visits to the mound?

 

You know what was weird? When I was in Japan they had this nightly sports show for baseball highlights, and after a Dice-K start they showed his press conference. Just hearing him speak for extended periods of time was weird to hear, even if I couldn't make out what he was saying.

No' date=' you're cherrypicking. Per usual. Unlucky and sucking aren't contradictory terms in the slightest. Good to know I got you searching for phantom posts by me, though.[/quote']How dare I use your own words against you. What an underhanded cheap trick!:lol:

There's a possibility he might be hurt or injured' date=' since he's obviously struggling to keep his pitches down. At least that's what your graph reflects to me.[/quote']

 

So is he hurt, or is he unlucky? If he's hurt he shouldn't be pitching.

LOL, you imbecile. Those two terms don't disagree with each other at all. One, in fact, can serve as a cause for the other.

 

 

So that was just an example of you thinking that you're being clever and have struck up some dirt on me, when in reality you just stuck your fist further up your ass.

Oooh, I wouldn't want to do that would I?:o

No, he shouldn't. But maybe he's not feeling well and hasn't said anything yet. He could have already been examined, and his arm showed no actual damage. Maybe its fatigue from the WBC. We don't know, hence the maybes.

Truthfully, I wasn't super-confident of winning this one w/Dice pitching.

But I did at least expect our hitters to produce more. Only the 4th...start swinging.

A ton of Asian pitchers pull that crap and get away with it. I remember Ichiro talking in perfect English to a 1st baseman that was miked up (not realizing it), yet he always "needs" a translator with the media. I'm a bit surprised no one in the media have ever called them out on it.

With the US media the way it is, I'd probably pull that stunt too, in their shoes.
