and dehydration

I was wondering too… is that the official story?

by El4short on Jul 15, 2008 10:22 PM PDT up 0 recs

“The Giants’ right-hander didn’t show at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday, having spent much of the day getting treated for flu-like symptoms and dehydration.”

and

“Padres manager Bud Black, an NL coach, confirmed Lincecum wouldn’t have pitched in the game, anyway, because he pitched Sunday, same as Brandon Webb of the Diamondbacks. Black did say they might have been used in extra innings.

“I think Lincecum had the 15th,” Black joked.”

If he was really hospitalized, then it wouldn’t just be a hangover.

That said, it could be the flu exacerbated by a really fucking bad hangover.

Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.

by jponry on Jul 15, 2008 10:23 PM PDT up 0 recs

He probably just had an IV for the dehydration. No biggie. You don’t get hospitalized for the flu usually, either.

You get hospitalized for the flu more often than you get hospitalized for a hangover.

Besides this dude went to a big college for three years. He should have learned to hold his liquor in all that.

Exactly. He had ample time to get crunk before. And Wilson and friends said the flu was going around the Giants clubhouse.

Difference is, it’s just the All-Star game he wasn’t expected to pitch in.

And Wilson’s a good guy – he’s gonna give a good story for his teammate.
