SFist Ted, Weatherman, set a new standard for self-sacrifice that is going to be hard to top yesterday. On a cool evening at Jackson Park, SFist and friends took on Wired Magazine in a friendly game of softball. In the bottom of the first inning, on a short pop-up to center field, Ted came charging in and tried to make a diving catch. The ball dropped, but the inning ended when the runner was tagged heading into second.

Going over to check on Ted and congratulate him on his hustle, he told us "I think I broke my wrist. I don't want to look at it." Indeed, it was a grisly sight. After a frantic but ultimately fruitless phone call to Kaiser -- where the automated system told us "You've been selected to participate in a customer service survey," causing us to swear a blue streak and hang up -- SFist Rita drove Ted and Molly Go Lightly to the emergency room. Not exactly an auspicious start to the game, but Ted wanted us to keep playing, so following his example, we sucked it up and soldiered on.
