Oh, was that a rhetorical question?

Joe Buck just asked a national audience, "What do you think was going through Joe Torre's mind when he saw that bat headed towards Alex Rodriguez?"

The bat had slipped out of the batter's hand and sailed towards the Yankee third baseman.

What do I think was going through Joe Torre's mind?

I can only speculate:

1) "When time does the buffet start at the Country Kitchen?"

2) "What day is it?"

3) "Where am I?"

4) "Who are we playing?"

5) "Is it four strikes is an out? Or four balls is a walk?"

6) "What's a good nickname for Chien-Ming Wang?"

7) "Green tea makes me want to pee."

8) "Do things. Do things. Do things. Do things."

9) "How does one associate Marx's theories of dialectical materialism with Gould's theories of transitional biology vis a vis a holistic view of the collective unconscious?"

10) Nothing.
