Big League Stew - MLB

If you were watching last night's Red Sox-Orioles game, you had to have a suspicions that Coco Crisp's leap over the wall in pursuit of a Ramon Hernandez 3-run HR (video here) might end up as a Create-a-Caption. Luckily the AP photographer captured the moment well and here it is.

So have at it, amateur Internet copywriters of the world. How should this caption read?

Follow the jump for winners from Tuesday's C-a-C:

C-a-C: 'Hey Mr. Woodchuck, is this bat made out of ... wood?" 

(Great job by everyone on this one ... there were a few I couldn't reprint that got more than a laugh.) 

1st — ferto6.

After a satisfying steak dinner, Carlos Quentin likes to kick back and clean his teeth with one of Alexei Ramirez's bats.

2nd — flash.

Carlos Quintin does his best impression of Ron Burgundy, playing the flute in front of his hot date in the stands.

3rd —W.B.

Swish, you liar! There's no creamy nougat center!

HM — Ron Trauma. 

"Hey!! This isn't a Silver Slugger Award!!!!!! It's a chocolate bat wrapped in foil!!!!! Awesome!!!!"

HM —GiantKiller.

    After Manny fled to the other league, Coco Crisp took a message too literally and decided to do the same.

    Orioles Bullpen Coach: That right there is a five tenths deduction for not keeping your feet together. But he plays for Boston...he'll probably still get the bronze.

    Coco Crisp is fed up with his batting average so he opts for the quickest route back to Boston....

    Remembering Manny's Moment when he high fived the Sox fan at Camden Yards...Coco Crisp tries to recreate that moment but unfortunately screws up the timing of the high-five...and the catch.

    Upon venturing too close to the wall, Coco Crisp sees the lower half of the message: "Be there, not here". To the horror of the Baltimore relief pitchers, Coco gets swallowed up by the mysterious Bullpen Monster of Camden Yards and discovers just what happened to Brady Anderson all these years.

    Nobody ever looks in Baltimore's bullpen. That's why Coco Crisp uses it for the between innings game of hide-'n-seek.

    Hey look guys! I found our season down here!
    Upset that he was not chosen as the 50th million visitor to Camden Yards, Coco Crisp takes his frustration out on the O's bullpen and it's outfield walls.
