Sometimes, it’s better to just let the Tweets tell the story:

Today, I get to see Bartolo Colon batting. In person. This may rival being at the Game 7 of the 2011 World Series.

If Bartolo Colon puts the ball in play and gets to run, don’t even ask me for my ticket stub. There is some memorabilia that is priceless.

Bartolo Colon leads off the 6th. I predict he gets his first hit of the season. #NL4EVA

See how dumb the DH is?

It’s an impressive twitter hoax to get all of the diaspora that I follow to try and convince me that Bartolo Colon hit a double today.

42,221 witnessed Bartolo’s first career double. But 102,221 will claim that they did.
