He's been watching too much football. You don't need to stop the clock in a baseball game.

>Greinke is an oddity in himself. He has a phobia where you get the heebie jeebies in crowds. You'd think that would rule out being a pro athlete but somehow he has been managing. With his contract expiring and the Brewers going nowhere it is widely believed the Brewers will trade him this month before the trading deadline. One of the rumored suitors (as always) are the Yankees. There is a thought to ponder, Zack pitching in front of New York crowds. And Boston crowds.

>The Brewers don't come in on TV here and there isn't much point watching the Cubs, other than Anthony Rizzo, so I have been watching some White Sox. Even without Ozzie they are a fun team to watch. Very loose, not to mention leading their division. I don't know if you caught any of this but they had a hilarious "Take Jake" ad campaign to get Jake Peavy elected to the last spot on the AL all star team in the write-in fan vote. Sox stalwart Paul Konerko was right in the middle of it and even Jerry Reinsdorf, not known as a comic, got involved. My favorite was a pregame interview in which secondbaseman Gordon Beckham did a hilarious impresonation of Peavy.

>Plus their TV announcers are Hawk Harrelson and Steve Stone, whose amiable styles should not lead anyone to believe they don't know what they're talking about. It's like a master class in inside baseball.

>UPDATE: I am so ancient (you can just ask my daughters) that I remember him as a slugger with the Red Sox when I was a kid. His signature phrase is ritually delivered after a White Sox pitcher strikes out an opposing batter: "He gone." You can count on him saying it, like Marv Albert saying "Yesssss." The difference is he knows a lot more about baseball than Marv knows about basketball
