It's worthy of writing. I don't know if you saw the play, but it will be on every rain-delay-show-on-bloopers-in-baseball tv program from here on out.

But since when do weird plays get their own section in news and notes? This is on a player profile from a fantasy provider. When people are checking their fantasy teams, do they really care that he made a weird play in the field? Let it be on tv, because then I can actually see what happened, but a play-by-play within a play of a weird play just seems unnecessary.

It may sound like a strange note, but in my league, we count "routine line drives that pop out of the glove, off the top of the cap, off the brim and back into the mitt" as a category. Unfortunately, I left Cuddyer on the bench on Monday.

KFFL also apparently specializes in twisted logic. This gem, after Santiago Casilla's scoreless inning streak to start the season ended at 17 1/3:
May 12 Jesse Sanchez, of MLB.com, reports Oakland Athletics RP Santiago Casilla has not been scored upon in 18 innings pitched this year. Casilla sports a 2-0 record with a 0.47 ERA in 19 1/3 innings pitched.
So, except for the innings in which he's been scored upon, he's unscored upon.
