Tank McNamara by Bill Hinds for March 21, 2015

Hey Philistines, take your hats off when in the mess hall.

The rookies lucky. Turkey is better for you than beef. Less nitrates.

There are unwritten rules, like the one that says after two consecutive home runs the next, third batter, is not supposed to swing at the first pitch.

Then again, all rookies are equal, but some rookies are more equal than others……..

Or when you lead 9-0 in the eighth, the runner at first does not try to go to third on a clean single to right.
