I confess I haven't watched a baseball game for about 10 years but I tuned in last night for some reason and almost fell off my chair when I saw that Pat Borders (who doesn't appear to have aged but has exchanged scraggly mustache for goatee) and John Olerud are still playing. What are they now? 50? They have no right to go on with their careers while I'm not paying attention. Next thing you'll be telling me that Joe Carter has retired.
I was chuffed to see that some former hockey player from Manitoba apparently hits very well.
Thus ends my first and hopefully only post ever about baseball.

I was surprised to learn that Borders was still playing, too, but I read a story a while back that said he's actually getting some significant playing time as their backup catcher. I think he's 43 or so. And yes, Joe Carter has retired.
Please translate. What does
chuffed mean?
