Pitchers - do not neglect your outfielders!

Today's video brings us a simple moral. It's no secret that pitchers are the center of attention in a wiffleball game. They're in the middle of the field and, at times, it can be difficult to keep up with all the action going on all around you. When you find yourself unaware of where the ball is WATCH OUT. Even a routine wayward foul ball can lead to you looking silly (as this video clearly indicates). Moral of the story: know where the ball is at all times.

Now there are some things I like about this video other than the obvious ball to the dome in the middle of this video. 3 seconds in the video the guy with the gray shirt and hat appears to be attempting to grab the guy in the red shirt's nipple. Unfortunately for him his attempt was unsuccessful. A sufficient nip pinch could have added a lot of humor to the video. Next I adore the rap music being 'blasted' from the red Jetta. How white is this video? C'mon! During the part of the video where it's a loop of the dude getting hit in the head - try to divert your attention to the guy in the red shirt in the Jetta. It looks like he's doing some sort of Midwestern white boy jig. "Turn it ova, Turn it ova, Turn it ova." But above all the noise you can clearly hear that light crunch sound of the ball pelting that dude's head. It's at that moment when everything that's wrong in this video is made right.

  2. It may have not been as good as a nip nab but a ball to his friend's head will have to suffice.
