Scene: Girl is enjoying a baseball game, eating a hot dog, drinking a beer, and watching her team take a comfortable 5-0 lead. Suddenly, it is the eighth inning and she collapses. They take her to the hospital, but the doctors are puzzled.
House: Have we ruled out leukemia?
Omar Epps: Yes, all of the tests have come back negative.
The girl: Well, what about a tumor?
The Aussie: It's not a tumor.
House: Well, have you checked out the ballpark? Maybe she got metal poisoning from the seat.
The three lesser doctors hang their heads and go check out the ballpark.
The Aussie: There's nothing here.
The girl: It must be something else.
Omar Epps: It could be [insert lengthy medical term here.]
The go on running all sorts of tests. Then, as House sits in his apartment, his oncologist friend comes in and House suddenly has an idea. He hurries to the hospital and asks Omar Epps to get a newspaper in Cutty's presence. She looks at him like he's crazy and he's going to be wrong.
House: That's it! Look, the bullpen nearly blew another lead! She just needs a prescription for a CLOSER and she'll be fine.
Stay tuned for scenes of next week's House, when Cincinnati fans beat up Tony Womack for starting over Freel.

Yes, I saw that episode of House too.
And I was one of the fans that beat up Tony Womack. What's up with that? Freel should start EVERY game, my God that guy is a true baseball player and plays his heart out every game!! He is one that gives 110% at all times. I'm sure some other team needs a second baseman that we can give Womack to.
yeah, i'll be a part of that mob.
