Curveballs

The Reds are playing baseball on TV and losing.  Some seasons aren't as strong as others.  Along the bottom of the screen, a green bar appears and says: Avocado is back.  Avocado, avocado...no that isn't a player for the Reds or the Dodgers, it's an ad for Subway.  I wonder how often it happens in Japan that the things that don't make sense to me, really don't make sense.  Is  it me, or the world?  What does avocado have to do with a baseball game?  But in this world it does.
