Submitted Baseball Heckling Story: It's not really a heckle, but it was hilarious! From 1991-99, I lived in Lakeland, Florida where the Detroit Tigers trained. They have a fantasy camp and our umpire association provided umpires for the games (paid $100 a game, GRAVY). It was a lot of fun. Guys, most from Michigan, would come down and spend 2 weeks with their favorite team legends and team up and play ball. In this one game, there was a guy, probably in his late 40's, early 50's pitching, and he couldn't get the ball over the plate to save his life! He had walked 3 straight (and you could have driven an 18 wheeler through my zone) and he was frustrated. They are provided with Tiger uniforms with their names stitched on the back and I noticed name was Frisell. I then looked down at the catcher and he had the same name on the back, he was about 22 or so. He was giving the old man fits. He kept yelling things like this; "Hey man! Get it in the same ZIP Code at least" or "C'mon, my Grandma can do better than you" or "C'mon, you're killing me" and on and on. I had heard this for about 5 or 6 batters and I leaned down and said, "Hey kid! You related to the pitcher?" He turned around and said, "Yeah! On my Mommas side!" He said it loud enough for just about everyone in the stands and they just erupted in laughter!! One of the best!! - email address withheld
