When their team goes on defense, you know you'll hear "awwwe, c'mon, blue! Ring'm up!" from the outfield.

I'd be half-tempted to say back, "you can't make that call from there, either!"

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
