I was looking at pictures from today's Yankees/Rangers game, and I found this picture . . .
I mean . . . look at it. The caption claims that it's a picture of Bernie Williams chucking his bat and helmet aside after getting struck out. I think the caption LIES. I think that Bernie is using the Force. Either that, or Bernie is desperately hoping for guidance from Evil McHelmet. And it looks like Evil McHelmet is about to talk.
Seriously, though . . . this is one of those pure-chance photos. A split second sooner or later, and we wouldn't get the bat and helmet hovering in the air looking like a demented Darth Vader, and we wouldn't get that look of deranged, earnest serenity on Williams's face. The more I look at it, the harder it makes me giggle. A brilliant example of photographic art by accident.
