Are you sure that's him? I saw the interview and was under the impression that this was some lame comedian doing his thing. BTW...I thought some of the one-liners that were delivered by the emcee....were going to throw some of those athletes into a 'roid rage. Just sayin.

I think he's just having fun. Or possibly has some social phobia. Either way, he brings some showmanship and entertainment to the sport.

Still has nothing on the great Turk Wendell for weird.

The eccentric reliever pitched for four teams between 1993 and 2004 and posted some solid seasons in that span. However, he’s most remembered for his vast collection of bizarre superstitions. Among Wendell’s more notable quirks was his requirement that he chew four pieces of black licorice while pitching. At the end of each inning, he’d spit them out, return to the dugout, and brush his teeth, but only after taking a flying leap over the baseline. Wendell, an avid hunter, also took the mound wearing a necklace adorned with trophies from animals he had harvested, including mountain lion claws and the teeth of wild pigs and buffalo. When compared to these superstitions, Wendell’s other little oddities (drawing three crosses in the dirt on the mound, always throwing the rosin bag down as hard as he could, and insisting figures in his contract end in 99 as a tribute to his jersey number) don’t seem so strange.

Wow...I stand corrected....that was him. After seeing what he went through as a teen....I can see why he may be a little....shall we say....eccentric. Dude has a nasty slider though.

Well, Ted Turner owns Capt. Outrageous. This guy could be Capt. Obstreperous. :rolleyes: Assuming anyone actually gives a crap.
Guy is a attention guy. But, hey you gotta like him and his background.
