What A Day

Let's talk about the day that Darren O'Day had yesterday (does anyone else feel I have overused the word "day" in that sentence?). Who is Darren O'Day? Good question.

Yesterday, he was sitting at home in Florida when he got a call from his agent. "The Texas Rangers have picked you up on waivers. They are playing the Toronto Blue Jays tonight. You need to be there." So, Darren gets on a plane and lands in Toronto at 9:45 pm and immediately goes straight to the stadium. The game was still going on and was in extra innings. In the bottom of the 11th, with a runner in scoring position, the Rangers called in Mr. O'Day to pitch. As he is coming onto the field, his teammates were looking at the scoreboard to find out who this guy was. THEY HAD NEVER MET HIM! He gets to the mound and the infielders come to the mound, SHAKE HIS HAND AND INTRODUCE THEMSELVES. Wait, it gets worse.

He didn't have a uniform, so he was wearing Kason Gabbard's jersey. So ghetto. I love the Rangers.

Just thought y'all would find that as funny as I did. Maybe not. Peace.



Oh, by the way, he faced one batter, gave up a weak single, a run scored, and the Rangers lost. Welcome to Arlington Darren O'Day.

you know you're on shaky ground and may not stick around for long when your uniform has velcro for the name patch.
