NO PEEING IN BASEBALL

A Mets-Phillies game was delayed Monday night when Mets centerfielder Angel Pagan failed to show up for an at-bat—because he was in the bathroom. Pagan eventually turned up and grounded out. The Mets lost 10-0.

There is something wonderfully cabalisitic about this story, a poetic celestial display with an unclear, obtuse meaning that invites commentary. Baseball is a game of perfection and any tampering with the pace of the already slow game is heresy – enter Angel Pagan.

Perhaps his middle name is Agnostic – Angel Agnostic Pagan? The name is the pathway for the soul to enter into the body, but sometimes the name is indicative of an additional strata as a result of the meaning of the name – is this case two opposites, Angel and Pagan.

When opposites are in balance, the essence is more readily available – no wonder Angel Pagan plays center field. What does it mean that Angel Pagan would interrupt perfection to pee, or worse? This is obviously a spiritual manifestation of God's Will.

Most happening occur in conjunction with the laws of nature, some are metaphors and other are the secret – you see it but you don't know what it means. In the end it was 10-0. Ten for the angels and zero for the pagans – a communications from the Heaven to the Earth.
