Random Cub



May 11, 2000

Glenallen Hill

from baseball-reference.com:

  • He was the victim of perhaps the most bizarre injury in baseball history. He suffered cuts, scrapes, and bruises while sleepwalking during a nightmare about spiders.
  • He once was arguing balls and strikes with an umpire, who ordered the pitcher to deliver the next pitch while Hill was standing several feet out of the box. With a two strike count, Hill jumped into the box while the ball was being delivered and amazingly slapped the ball to right field for a single.
  • Hill admitted in February of 2008 to using performance-enhancing substances during his career. He said he had made poor decisions in his past life.

  1. That's even more bizarre than Sammy Sosa sneezing his way onto the DL.

    Love the Random Cub thing. Will you be doing more of them?

In 1789, the governor of Australia granted land and some animals to James Ruse in an experiment to see how long it would take him to support himself. Within 15 months he had become self sufficient. The area is still known as Experiment Farm. This is my Experiment Farm to see how long it will take me to support myself by writing.
