Steve Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 This Phillies prank on Kyle Kendrick works on so many levels By 'Duk Monday, Feb 18, 2008 9:40 am EST There are still eight months left in the 2008 season, but the rest of the 29 teams are going to need the time if they're going to top the prank the Phillies played on young Kyle Kendrick over the weekend. If you haven't seen it yet (video here), the setup went like this: Manager Charlie Manuel called the 23-year-old pitcher into his office and told him he had been traded to the Yomiuri Giants for a player named "Kobayashi Iwamura." The ruse, expertly orchestrated by Brett Myers (who else?), worked so well that Kendrick was shocked into silence for most of the trick. Couldn't even stop to realize that MLB and Japanese teams never swap players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julian2 Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 I don't think they have pitchers in ice hockey. I reckon that's the guy who runs through the back field and takes the ball out from under the basket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
