“So, do you know how I think about things when I have free time?” Kruk asked the game for play for play McCarthy. “Then, I wondered. The person who invented the clock, the first clock. How did that person know what time it was?”
McCarthy said it was a “really good question”, since Alec Bohm reached the first base for an error of the second base at the bottom of the fourth entrance. McCarthy then assumed that the person who created the clock could have used a sun watch to calculate what time it was.
“However, is that accurate?” Kruk asked.

The former first base said he had no answer to his own question and thought he would ask McCarthy in case he had the answer.
The clock inventor is quite difficult to point out. Ancient civilizations developed the first timing devices. It was determined that the first sun and water watches were used in the 1200 BC by the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians. Several inventors helped to develop the clock further, and most people today have resorted to digital devices on analog.

Kruk is definitely one to continue asking world questions in the middle of baseball games. He is anxious to find another Brainbuster to keep fans guessing.
