Ryan Day viciously trolled by Michigan baseball team with unique job offer

Ryan Day is feeling the heat after another loss to Michigan, giving Ohio State three straight brutal losses in The Game. In fact, the head coach is struggling so much that Day is even catching strays from a Michigan-based baseball team.
The Kalamazoo Growlers — a summer collegiate team in the Northwoods League — have taken it upon themselves to extend a job offer to Day. That offer is for Day to come and serve as the team’s third base coach moving forward.
“We think Ryan was born for the position.” said Growlers Owner, Brian Colopy, “We will do whatever it takes to get Ryan to Kalamazoo.”
The team is fully committed to the idea, listing a start date as the middle of May with a position that includes coaching 3rd base, surveillance and scouting. The Growlers acknowledged a need to raise salaries in order to make the move happen and are selling “OFFICIAL 3rd base coach t-shirts” featuring Ryan Day’s face to help raise the necessary funds.
Of course, that magnificent attempt at trolling Day relates back to a famous comment by Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh. He previously referenced some people “born on 3rd base” while feeling like they hit a triple.
