Samurai Baseball

Posted by Paul Moro on Wednesday July 01st 2009, 4:07 pm - filed in Quick laughs

If you’re anything like me, then you’ve probably spent endless hours wondering what baseball would be like if we replaced bats with samurai swords. Well, I wonder no more. It would be super exciting for a couple of pitches. Then you realize that you’ll run out of baseballs pretty quickly. And that the catcher will be plenty busy fielding balls split in two.

Teams That Were Almost Great: 2003 Los Angeles Dodgers
