Mix In A Salad Herbie

The Twins held their Old Timers Day the other day at Target Field, a stadium that none of the Old Timers ever played in.
Former first baseman Kent Hrbek was there and made a deep impression. On the field. Hrbek was running (in slow motion) to grab a foul pop-up along the first base line when he muffed the catch and his knee took a major divot out of the sod. Didn't have that problem at the Metrodome.
Anyway, to be kind, Hrbek hasn't stayed in great shape in retirement. Never a small guy, he looks to be 50 or so pounds over his playing weight.
To be unkind, Hrbek is a fat-ass who needs to lose a ton of weight and if I were the Target Field groundskeeper he would be banned from ever stepping on my pristine field again.
