Baseball is very boring.
Do you need any proof that baseball is very boring? Well, please review the box score to today's barn burner game where the Phillies played the Marlins. The two pitchers starting today were Dustin McGowan and David Phelps. These pitchers would have elicited yawns last year on the Jays and Yankees respectively; this year, they have the power to put grown men and women in comas. They did not disappoint for three innings where they traded zeros against teams that, Giancarlo Stanton notwithstanding, would consider hitting themselves out of a wet paper bag a fairly dramatic challenge.
