The Dugout: Byung-Hyun Kim Is A Pimp

The Dugout is a feature at FanHouse that brings the lives of Major League Baseball players directly to you...sort of. The official chatroom of the MLB keeps you up to date with all the recent happenings of your favorite players both on the field and off.

I take almost as much interest in the absolutely horrible MLB players as I do the excellent. Seeing a guy play like a little leaguer is just so much more fun to me than seeing a great play. I mean, how many times has Pujols made you laugh to the point of tears? That's right. A hell of a lot less than Jeff Weaver.

I've seen Byung-Hyun Kim's career from start to finish (about 3 years) and I can't figure out why he keeps showing up on the field. Granted, he shows flashes of mediocrity, but let's notch that under the broken clock column.

His 9 runs in 4+ innings last night was funny enough, but throw in three hit batsmen that sparked head targeting practice and you've got yourself some Grade-A entertainment. The events in their entirety can be viewed after the jump.
