Deadspin

No wonder he had all those wild pitches. He was standing too close to the plate.

the fuck is a ankeil

2 words....Day-UM

Maybe Ankiel should have been pitching from the outfield all along.

pshaw! I've seen Jacque Jones make half that throw before

Coincidentally, Steve Blass had a wonderful post-baseball career as a javelin thrower.

will then kissed his ankiel poster and slept in his ankiel jersey holding his ankiel figurine.

There's a guy on my softball team who can fire a strike from the straightaway center field wall to the plate, every time. But like Ankiel, he does tons and tons of HGH.

@MitchKayak: "Holding his Ankiel figurine"... isn't a euphemism for anything, is it?

Golf clap.

@MitchKayak: Will then SPONTANEOUSLY ORGASMED FOR 2 HOURS.
/Fixed.

Holy Great Hose Batman!

Well, it was at Coors Field, so I'm sure literally dozens of people saw it live.

@ILovePaleHoseandPaleHos: that makes baby jesus cry.

@Doyle McPoyle:

And it explains how the throws got to third base so quickly. I'd like to see him try that in Miami.

It's Ankiel Porn Day at Deadspin this Wednesday.

Big deal. It's not like he was trying to throw out Sid Bream or anything.

I thought this was "sports news without access, favor, or discretion".

I'm guessing Will needed some "alone time" after watching that video.

its too bad I refuse to watch ESPN anymore, those highlights would have been fun to watch

The ball travels better in altitude.

@BaBaBoey: On that note, isn't it curious that Ankiel can throw a strike from the warning track but couldn't throw one from 60'6?

Jose Guillen had some sick, sick throws from right while he was with the Bucco's in 3 Rivers. Pretty sure he gunned a dude from right near the wall tagging up from second. Maybe it's just weird to see a center fielder with an arm.

@dismalScientist: Ichi-ro?
