Miguel Olivo, If Not Before, Is Now a Badass
Ummmm….I wonder what Kramer thinks of that?
The veteran catcher, who inked a one-year deal with the Rockies in January, was in an uncomfortable position. As The Denver Post reported, Olivo passed a kidney stone in the eighth inning of Monday night’s game against the Diamondbacks. Rather than sit out as most mere mortals would, Olivo exited the bathroom, grabbed his catching gear and finished the game. Olivo insisted that despite evidence to the contrary, he’s not superhuman. “Believe me, it’s not fun,” Olivo told the Post. “Sometimes, when I’ve got that thing, I just want to die. But I can handle pain a little bit. Once it’s gone, I’m normal, I’m good. Let’s play baseball.”
