Two Mannys?

With a tear in our eye, we say, 'goodbye!'

Peeking in the RiverCats' dugout during Sunday's game something didn't seem right about Manny:

Here is Manny being Manny from Game 1...

...and Manny from game 4. When did he start wearing glasses?

 Hmmm? Looked odd with the naked eye. Really looked odd zoomed in.

And he looks kind of doughy. What the?

Wait a second! That's not Manny! IMPOSTER!

Who is that fake-dreadlocked man? And what has he done with Manny?
 

The imposter inspects his bat like Manny...

...wanders the dugout aimlessly like Manny...

...he's even wearing Manny's batting gloves,
protective elbow guard and doo-rag...

Does Manny have a doppelganger?

The face is starting to look familiar...

...is it? Could it be?

It is! It's ex-Sky Sox pitcher Bruce Billings!
Now sporting a beard and glasses to fool the masses.

Damn! Manny's going to be so pissed! Bruce is going to die!

Bruce Billings give Manny back his stuff.
Manny seems cool with it.

No hatin', just lazin' on the fence together. Manny is a good dude.

Bruce lived. Manny hit a couple of balls hard and seemed to be a good teammate. Good luck with your comeback Manny. Thanks for a fun weekend. You deserve to go out on your own terms. Hope you get that chance.
