You Didn't Want It -- You Got It!!

Here's a guy from San Diego who's really shaking thing's up a little. How? By writing a story about David Eckstein.

built like the batboy
little league lightweight
throws a baseball as if he were heaving a javelin
certified shrimp
sawed-off leadoff man
pestering presence
nothing fancy
maximum effort
enviable efficiency
gritty little gamer
inspiration
more ambition than aptitude
University of Florida walk-on
"man of iron"
no one would ever mistake Eckstein for a superstar
small ball
continues to crowd the plate despite accumulated bruises
seafood motif
