Felipe Alou is a fantastic source of sexual innuendo:
"He doesn't play ball, he plays with the ball," said former San Francisco manager-turned-special assistant Felipe Alou, who meant it as a compliment about (shortstop Brian) Bocock's defensive timing and good hands.
The kid's name is Bocock and he plays with the ball. He also "has soft hands, a quick release and poise beyond his years". Teammate Tim Lincecum had no comment. I have a five-year old boy's sense of humor. I should probably give it back.
(Thanks, David Pinto of Baseball Musings. I owe you a Coke.)
+1 for "poise beyond his years."
-1 for "a quick release."
That leaves him at zero. Pshh more like Nocock.
I have a hard time believing this is in the spirit that David Pinto intended.
Ha! I said hard.
