Hunter Pence, AKA Under Pants

by lawman3842 on Jun 3, 2007 9:00 PM EDT

Various players have nicknames that are often given to them whether they like it or not early in their big league careers.

While watching the St. Louis-Houston game today while the Astros announcers were drooling all over themselves about Hunter Pence and repeating his name over and over again (it sounded almost like Joe Morgan talking about Derek Jeter or Barry Bonds), it occured to me that "Hunter Pence" sounds an awful lot like "Under Pants".

From now on, that's what I'm going to call him.

When I think of Pence--

I imagine that's what Colby Rasmus will play like.

...Hopefully.

they are similar, not an unrealistic expectation at all.

well

rasmus probably has a better arm (used to be a pitcher, clocked at 94 mph from centerfield)

i went to the cards caravan

and asked about that and he said he could throw 94 mph from center, then i asked him how fast he could throw from the mound, he looked at me funny when i asked him that and said 94
