Marlins Pitcher Falls Asleep During Game

Florida Marlins relief pitcher Edward Mujica was caught on camera napping during the 2nd inning of the Cubs game on Saturday. The Marlins were up 3-0 at that point and went on to win 13-3 and Mujica didn't even have to pitch.

CHICAGO - Mujica said napping during the early innings is one of his rituals. He said that when he was with the Padres, he napped from the first inning through the third in a room next to the bullpen.

“In Miami I can’t do that because there’s no place to sleep,” he said.

Mujica said the sun and heat on Saturday made him sleepy, and he nodded off into dreamland.

The Cubs announcer, Bob Brenly, was pissed off that a relief pitcher would take a nap during the 2nd inning and went on a little rant.

"Boy, that's embarrassing. I don't even know who that is. That's embarrassing. Can you imagine any other job in the world where you show up and sit down at your desk or your workplace and, oh, take a little nap for the first hour or so of work here. Come on! Sleep at night."

Embarrassing? Really Bob Brenly? Dozing off in 90 degree heat during a Marlins Cubs game is embarrassing? Does Bob Brenly actually realize this was a game between the Florida Marlins and Chicago Cubs? The Marlins have the worst attendance in baseball and recently stopped selling upper deck tickets and watching the Cubs is like watching a high school softball team. Now that the Marlins have an 80-year-old manager I'm surprised napping during games isn't mandatory. Along with carrying around hard candies and watching re-runs of Matlock in the clubhouse to get pumped up before every game.

Sunday Night Baseball Drinking Game - Yankees vs. Cubs Edition

Bobby Valentine is quickly climbing his way up the "most annoying announcer list" so here is our Sunday Night Baseball Drinking Game to get you through the night. The "drink" rules will stay the same each week but the "chug" rule will change depending on who's playing.

Drink every time:

ESPN uses the behind the plate camera view
They use K-Zone during an at-bat (one drink per batter)
Bobby Valentine says something that makes you want to mute the TV
The ump and K-Zone disagree (2 drinks)

Chug:

Whenever the announcers talk about Derek Jeter (you're gonna be fucked up by the 2nd or 3rd inning...depending on fast you metabolize alcohol - which depends on a variety of factors such as: age, gender, size, genetics - don't say we never taught you anything)
