August 11, 201312 yr Gives them something to laugh and joke about...probably a big kangaroo court fine, everything's enjoyable when you're playing the way they have been for the last 2 months.
August 11, 201312 yr most shocking in all this was that Angel Hernandez was the third base umpire and actually knew what was going on.
August 12, 201312 yr I wonder how no one has ever tried this on Alexei or Alejandro. They would have to get on base for this to work on them.

September 1, 201312 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 13, 2013 -> 05:43 PM) Twice This is not true. Twice it occurred in a month and a half period (1989), which is the reason I think so many people, White Sox fans included, believe it only happened two times. Steve Lyons also got him for the third time in 1991. Ozzie Guillen is one of only two players to get caught three times. The other was a little known player named Jack Martin, who only also caught caught twice in one year, once in 1912, and twice more in 1914. Gene the Stick Michael pulled off the hidden ball trick five times. George Stovall and Frank Crosetti had pulled it off six times. While the king of them all was Bill Coughlin who did it seven times, at three different positions, including in game 2 of the 1907 World Series. Coughlin is the only player in the history of the game to pull off the hidden ball trick during a World Series.
