Juan Pierre is so fucking throwback.

Everything about him is old-school: his baggy uniform, the hat-under-helmet thing, and his slap-the-ball-the-other way style of hitting. So, yesterday, when he legged out a Cool Papa Bell single to give the Phillies their third win of the season, it wasn't a surprise that he did his post-game interview in a wife beater:

Is it just me or does Pierre look a lot of J.B. Smooth’s Leon from Curb Your Enthusiasm? When Pierre jokingly gave credit to Usain Bolt for his 90-foot, game-winning sprint, saying that he was inspired by the Jamaican sprinter's final leg of the 4 x 100 relay, all I heard was: That fucker fast, Larry. I see that motherfucker and I just wanna haul ass down that motherfuckin' line. You can’t do that shit half-speed. Fuck Furcal. Usain Bolted that motherfucker, Larry.

Of course, you only hear that once you're able to block out the Dom Brown dong watch going on in the background.
