More from Call to the Pen

As the Phillies 162 draws to a close, some expectations are questionable and disappointing. For the most part, understanding the logic behind some thinking is difficult.

To illustrate, one sports-radio personality expressed disappointment because he had expected three .300 hitters. And he was angry the stars had let him down by not living up to this anticipated potential. Besides Segura, who were the other two? Translation: a hitter’s park provides more home runs, not hits!

Like many fans, the radio voice is certain of his correctness and couldn’t possibly be wrong. In fact, how many of the faithful even with contradictory beliefs have even the slightest chance of being off? Only the one they disagree with!
