Pretending-To-Be-Ignorant Is Bliss

There was a no-hitter pitched in the Major Leagues last week.  And not too many weeks ago, a pitcher had a perfect game.

Typically what happens during such a game is that the pitcher's teammates start ignoring him as the game progresses.  They don't speak to him.  They don't sit near him.

Even the television and radio announcers try to come up with ways to avoid saying "no hits" and the like.

Nobody wants to be the jinx-er!

Baseball....  It could be renamed the "Sport of Superstition."
