Yeah, that oughta make a difference

On the eve of Game 3 of the World Series, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is making a pitch to MLB to change the name of “bullpen.”

PETA officials recommend that the enclosure that houses relief pitchers should be renamed the “arm barn,” the organization said in a news release.

“Strike out the word ‘bullpen,’ which references the holding area where terrified bulls are kept before slaughter, in favor of a more modern, animal-friendly term,” the news release stated.
