Courage, my friends; 'tis not too late to build a better world.
This thread has been phenomenal. Thank you very much to Gyro and to The McD. I think I learned more about baseball here than I had in my entire life up until this point. I'm not sure it's possible to overstate how much I ended up loving this in the end.

Finding myself weirdly appreciative of the shoutout to Psalm 129 (130). Is that a reference to the Japanese tendency to throw in references to Christianity totally gratuitously and without making any real sense, or was prayer/player too obvious of a pun to make?

[Digression: Is that the standard Latin translation of the Fátima decade prayer? I've seen a couple and the one I'm most familiar with is a bit different (though this one is definitely closer to the English rather than perhaps the original Portuguese.) I guess that's a challenge for a non-traditional prayer!]
