Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 28, 2024

A pitcher could still walk him. His team would need a designated runner.

Statistically speaking…

To rephrase another Yogi Berra-ism: 90 percent of life is mental. The other half is physical.

wiley is a twins fan?

Did they swipe that from Yogi Berra ?

His wife agreed in the beginning that it was For Batter or Worse.

A Red Sox fan, eh?

A Red Sox fan, eh?

Eulogy: “In the face of the inevitable he never balked.”

They’re not burying him very deep… But I guess we don’t worry about grave robbing as much as we used to. A lot of empty graves in Edinburgh because of the surgical college.

Red Sox on Thursday, wait till next year.

Guess he hit his final grounder…

It looks like he’s been sent to the dugout permanently.

Where’s the grave for this year’s Chicago White Sox team? They’re definitely having a season that will go down in history.

The inscribed name could have said CW Sox.

Does the B.F. Mike stand for “Best Friend” Mike?

It’s only a game.

HA! and you’re not even a Mets fan!

Voted off the island is pretty cool, too.

How about living challenged?

Yogi’isms no less

“Strike three called”!

So exactly how has he been “mathematically eliminated”?

Actually, he had a heart attack when he found out the A’s were leaving Oakland. Now all that’s left there is the crime and drugs

What? No recounts?

Requiem for a Cubs fan.

That is one crowded cemetery. Headstones right on top of each other.

I just read that the Seattle Mariners have a 1.6% chance at the playoffs this year.

I guess the Fat Lady will sing at his funeral.

He’s gone to the great postseason in the sky.

“It ain’t over ‘til it’s over.” is a Yogi Berra quotation but the “mathematically eliminated” I never heard. He said “until it’s mathematical”.

My baseball team was “mathematically eliminated” the first game of the season. I don’t know how, but it happened.

Maybe “Yer OUT!”.

That epitaph is just about the most banal/trite I have ever seen.

And that’s the ball game, folks.

White Sox funeral??

After the Boys of summer have gone !

The man who wrote “take me Out To The Ball game” had never been to a baseball game

“Wait ’til next year … !”

I think this is prescient of “Charlie Hustle.” RIP.
