Photos of the Day: 5/16/09

I wrote in the comments of Jenni's post on Papi that がんばって, or gambatte, means something like, "You can do it!" Another translation might be "Do your best!" which I kind of like more. So today's theme will be: Do Your Best!

Werth, Stairs, and Howard: "We're happy we don't have to play a whole second game! We did our best; we win!"

Kaz: ファンタシー野球どうですか? How's Fantasy Baseball going?
Fukudome: しんどいっすね。。。僕は67%しか使われてないんですよ。It's rough...I'm only 67% owned.
Kaz: マジっすか?こっちは30%っすよ!福留君、がんばれ!Really? I'm only 30% owned! Fukudome, do your best!

"Johnson questions the positions of his fielders"...he looks like he's going to murder them if they don't do their best.

  1. Good post!

    Do you remember that photo of Swisher with a giant press camera? I think it was taken in the middle of his monumental slump last week. It would be funny if managers gave underperforming players cameras to make them feel like they're still part of the team. It would be funnier (and sadder) if they did it to be like, "Maybe you should consider a new hobby."
