In the Cards '13 - #3 Dakota LaDouceur:

The amount of runs Dakota has knocked in over his two years in the league are only trumped by the ways in which his last name has been pronounced. La-dowch-eeyor... La-dooch-yoor... La-doych-yer... Frank... La-di-ser; no way, that last one can't possibly be right. Dakota was a co-Country Strong HR King in 2012, but never got much love for that accomplishment. I suppose we could blame it all on the trouble with pronunciation, but his signing to El Diablos in the offseason was also regarded as the least impactful of all former Punchout signings. We can definitely blame that on severe oversight. Despite the hour drive before him, "Laddy" has been at four of five El Diablos series this year and is clearly making his presence known with a "Devils when we win, fighting chickens when we lose" swagger. While he may have taken a step back in home run production with teammates picking up the slack, both his average and on-base percentage are higher than they were in 2012. That's LaDouceur. Enunciate.
