Leo: Like the Bears’ offense and the Sox’s bats, Jimmy is on vacation, so I’ve taken to taunting his empty workstation about my win last week.
Leo: So, blank computer monitor, I see the Bird Brains added red-hot Neifi Perez to the lineup. Quite the power surge. What’s the matter, Jimmy? Augie Ojeda not available? Ha, ha, ha … God, I’m so lonely. Anyway, tensions are high, as this is a big week. With three weeks to go in the season, a win here would just about clinch the championship for me.
Leo: Oh, you don’t think so, Jimmy’s empty chair? Wanna take this outside? No, I won’t roll you out there.
