Not in Victor Victoria.  Couldn't find the video, though.

"Mongo straight" is from Blazing Saddles. 

I'm more than a little tired of the Buxton Uppercut.

Another great bad-ball hitter was Ralph Garr.

Puckett used to swing at pitches all over the place, too. Where these great ones separated from the run-of-the-mill hitters was that they could drive these pitches.

Brief summary of duffeys outing

"Mongo straight" is from Blazing Saddles. 

Alex Karras played a closeted gay man in Victor Victoria, I think was the intended reference.

 

/ edit - sorry Chief, I hate to leave a pal twisting in the wind too long.

All of you are only pawns in game of life.

Speak for yourself. I'm a Knight who says Ni.

You mean those little blue and pink things that you put in the car?

 

Wait, were you talking about the board game?

I don't know as I've ever seen a pitcher tinkering so much with his mechanics during a ballgame. Now Duffey is falling off towards first base like Nolasco. WTF?

The game of life has cars, not pawns.

Update on duffey's line:

 

I'm more than a little tired of the Buxton Uppercut.

Is that anything like the French Mistake?

This might be a golden opportunity to stretch May out a bit.

I wouldn't call that 'tinkering'

Haha Duffey thought that was the third out

Tyler Duffey forges ahead with his shutout!!

Worstest 3 innings of shutout baseball in history.

........ and we're out

The game used little pink and blue pegs, not pawns.

Remember when Aaron Hicks was doing the French Mistake? Funny as hell.

Good for you. They can put down the electronics for an hour or so. Now I sound like my father.

Mongo straight. Buddy Bizarre, on the other hand...

Tyler Duffey forges ahead with his shutout!!

He is paddling with a straw. Painful to watch yet I can't look away.

C'mon, Kye-Kye, make a mistake to Sano.

In the write up about the game with 20 baserunners in a game without scoring it sounds like the author may have some Barry issues.
