Class Act, Part I

Sully today:

Mike Remlinger is sitting in a recliner in the clubhouse, gets his pinky finger caught in between chairs and is out for two weeks.

“The handles on them are wood,” Remlinger explained. “I just kind of turned quickly and didn’t know the other chair was right there.”

The other chair had been in the clubhouse all season, but Remlinger apparently didn’t notice its existence. He accused me of “smirking” after he revealed his injury, which was hard to deny because that’s my game face when listening to explanations of Cubs injuries.

While cheering may be forbidden in the press box, mocking seems to be A-OK.
