gbpfan1231 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I was at a youth baseball tournament yesterday and some kid swung on a pitch with a 3-0 count and the base coach was not happy. It reminded me of some major league baseball player who said something. Was there some player who said something like - "???? don't play that, ???? hacks on 3-0" The ???? I thought was his name and then maybe it was Homie or some other word??? Anyone know who that was and what the actual quote was? Thanks in advance - I can't get this out of my head.

ts Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) Charles Lee Glenn (Chuckie) Carr, Jr. (born August 10, 1967 in San Bernardino, California) was an Outfielder for the New York Mets (1990-91), St. Louis Cardinals (1992), Florida Marlins (1993-95), Milwaukee Brewers (1996-97) and Houston Astros (1997). He led the National League in Stolen Bases (58) in 1993. In 8 seasons he played in 507 Games, had 1,713 At Bats, 254 Runs, 435 Hits, 81 Doubles, 7 Triples, 13 Home Runs, 123 RBI, 144 Stolen Bases, 149 Walks, .254 Batting Average, .316 On-base percentage, .332 Slugging Percentage, 569 Total Bases, 30 Sacrifice Hits, 10 Sacrifice Flies and 4 Intentional Walks. Carr is perhaps remembered most for his hasty departure from the Brewers in 1997. After popping out to third base on a two balls, no strike count - Carr was questioned by manager Phil Garner. Carr reportedly replied to Garner by saying in third person: 'That ain't Chuckie's game. Chuckie hacks on 2-0.' He was released from the club shortly thereafter. A blog about the Milwaukee Brewers, Chuckie Hacks, is named after this incident. Edited July 19, 2009 by ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
