Oh Caption, My Caption | Kevin Bailey

July 12, 2012 by Paul Gotham 11 Comments

There is often nothing funnier than capturing a facial expression or occurrence at the right time, or, should we say, the most inopportune time.

I challenge you, loyal readers, to view the picture below and provide a captivating caption that will cause “the shores a-crowding” with “people all exulting.” Should you provide the wittiest of captions, for you the flag will be flung and the bugles will trill.

In a recent New York Collegiate Baseball League game against the Utica Brewers, Syracuse Salt Cat catcher, Kevin Bailey, found himself in the unenviable position of ducking a pitched ball.

    Hey I was just kidding about your Mom’s cooking. I am sure she is great at heating up chicken nuggets. Mind throwing it over the plate now?
