Guest #9, Hill once toured with Deerhunter as a hired gun on guitar. Also Lilly helped design some of the costumes used in the Of Montreal set.

Come on, what did you expect from Dick Stockton? Hell, he kept referring to Alfonso Soriano as "Adolfo."

Hey, what does this have to do with Pitchfork? (Guest is an inquisitive bunch.)

Actually the Napolean Dynamite postcard was in Glendon Rusch's locker on my Wrigley tour. It was of Napolean feeding Tina. Glendon also had a rookie Michael Barrett card which now must be worth like a zillion dollars. I like how baseball almanac lists Glendon at 6-2 170lbs.

The Hill thing was funnier than that entire movie.

Yes, Stockton and Girardi's non-comment afterwards was priceless. It made the whole thing even funnier. The Cubs pitchers must have a thing for Napoleon Dynamite. I remember I went on the Wrigley Field tour a couple of years ago, and there was a Napoleon Dynamite postcard up in Zambrano's locker.

Actually, Len & Bob did make mention of it during Sunday's game.

Dempster did a bad/funny Harry impersonation a while back.

They usually don't say anything about the line-ups - Dempster has done hilarious ones before giving everyone nicknames - can't remember if he did his Harry Caray impersonation - kinda think so.

It was really weird that the announcers said nothing but Dick Stockton is ancient and probably thinks Rich Hill talks like that. As for Girardi...he seems like a very serious baseball guy.
