Caption Contest: The Funnier, the Better

"No, Delmon! No! You can't go in there, man! You don't wanna see it...there aren't any cupcakes left!"

I wanted to post my first article in a series examining the 500 HR club tonight, but life has gotten in the way. In lieu of that, which will be gotten to later this week, I present you with a little bit of Sunday night entertainment: a caption contest.

Tonight's contest has no prize. Unless you consider being funny and making your fellow community members chuckle, and perhaps hit the much-desired "Rec" button, a prize. Hast thou the stones?

Not to be outdone by the bullpen,

Tolbert decides to meet Delmon at home with a football tackle, but Delmon was so slow that Matt began lunging towards the plate too soon.

Delmon, Seriously? How can the government not compromise on a budget if we just found a way to win that game?

The bucket of chicken worked!

Hey you remind me of Pedro Cerrano a little Delmon

Bats, they are sick. I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid. I ask Jobu to come, take fear from bats. I offer him cigar, rum. He will come.

"Delmon! Stop! Ben was just kidding when he said you run like you have a broomstick up your butt!"

And then he says under his breath: “Not that you’d catch him, since you run like you have a broomstick up your butt.”

And, lets be honest here.

How old were you when that happened? That was 7 years ago, making you 7 years old. Yeah. Half a life time, for you!

No Delmon, we’re doing wiggle-wiggle-wiggle-wiggle now, not flap-flap-flap-flap! I can tell you weren’t born in Wisconsin.
