I don't get it.
Anyway, Kyle's always had no problems with the muscles in his arm; he's been consistently in the 90's with his fastball and has a wicked slider. The problem has been the muscle between his ears.
One of my favorite Farnsworth stories involves him and one of the "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" singers. As you probably know, they still have guest singers come in every game to sing the song during the 7th-inning stretch, in honor of Harry Carey. One game, the guest singer was Shania Twain, and she came down to the locker room before the game to meet the players. Kyle decided he was going to make an impression on her, so he physically picks her up, and proceeds to carry her around the locker room. I thought I read she wasn't entirely impressed with the move.
You gotta love the attempt, though. Me, I would've just sat there and drooled.
