I was reading around on Badspot.us today, and found the following passage:
The current definition of a perfect game in baseball is that the no one on the opposing team reaches first base. The pitcher allows no hits, no walks, and no hit batsmen, providing the maximum benefit with the minimum effort. I propose a new definition in which the goal is to inflict the maximum amount of physical and emotional damage on the opposing team.
Each inning, the pitcher begins by intentionally hitting 3 batters to load the bases. He then proceeds to get three outs in a row with no runs scored. Perhaps with the cooperation of his own team, the score would remain 0-0 well into extra innings allowing for more time for him to pummel the enemy batsmen. The ultimate goal would be to injure all of the players on the opposing team to the point where they are unable to continue and must forfeit the game.
For those who have actually got out of the house and played a real game of baseball, that is illegal to do in baseball, because it is intentionally hitting other players with the ball.
Discuss.
