Apparently, Jason Giambi has a trick for getting himself out of hitting slumps, and (surprise!) it’s not more PEDs and HGH!
The slugger-turned-average-hitter admitted (for no good reason) that when he’s having trouble at the plate, he busts out a golden thong. He claims it always works, and has even lent the magical banana hammock to other teammates who are underperforming:
“You’re not worrying about your hands or your balance at the plate,” Damon said. “You’re worried about the uncomfortable feeling you’re receiving.”
When asked about smelling like Giambi’s crotch wearing the thong, Jorge Pasada said, “I don’t know if it works. I haven’t put it on yet.” There shouldn’t be much of a gross-out factor for Posada, who has admitted to peeing on his hands in lieu of wearing batting gloves.
Not the proudest moment for a once-proud franchise. But, is a thong as a lucky charm any weirder than this?
