Lord of the Cardinals

J.R.R. Tolkien Towles is a 23 year old rookie catcher on the Houston Astros. You probably never heard of him and you wouldn't be alone. But you will now. The homegrown kid had appeared in 5 games this year and was hitting a less than gaudy .231 (3-13). The kid went ape shit in St. Louis tonight with a home run, 2 doubles, a single and 8, count 'em, 8..RBI.

His official website (how he got one already is anyone's guess) describes him as a "a Christian Baseball Player with great work ethics and morals".

He's not just a flash in the pan apparently, having been chosen for this year's Futures game. Wonder what God thinks of some of his favorite activities?

  1. You just might be the first person other than myself to think that Missanelli is more annoying than Stephen A.
