David Wright is finally gritty!!!
"Wright was hit just above the ear hole by a pitch from Cain in the fourth inning, sending his batting helmet flying into the air and the gritty infielder sprawling to the ground. Wright lay there for several minutes before walking off the field with some help from trainers."
And all it took was getting hit in the head by a pitch. At least we now know how one develops grit.

Not only that
The SI headline on today’s game was touting the “scrappy” Mets.

All it takes is a little bit of suck and a concussion
to become scrappy

Just like we always knew:
“no talent” = scrappy.

Enjoy the sympathy, everyone, while we we can!

Wright always had a good chance to qualify as gritty at some point...
being a white dude and all.

You can't be gritty if Fatcessa thinks you're unclutch
