COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Forbes is best known for topping the Forbes list of Worst Blaseball Pitchers, as well as the list of Worst Pitchers Named Forbes. They are also known to be a stoner and prophet of the Olde One, their visions often beckoning the Great Crab Reckoning, though their gift of prophecy does not seem to aid their sporting ability and as such has not been ruled against.




Early Career

Brock Forbes did not try out for the Baltimore Crabs, or any other blaseball team. They entered the Crabs' stadium under the influence of a "fat joint" according to eye witnesses and fell asleep in the dugout. Their slumber lasted five years.

During a game, they were handed a baseball bat and hat by Crab Scott and in response joined the pitching line up immediately. Forbes wanders on and off the field frequently, possibly due to their drug induced state or perhaps related to their visions. They succeed in letting go of a pitch 2% of the time.

Brock selected the number 69 for themselves, when quizzed on the meaning of this number by ESPN (ExoSkeletal Player News), Brock simply chuckled and answered with "Oh, you know."

Chants

"Can't stop the Brock"

In Literature

Runolfio Peeper, the Crabs Poet Laureate, wrote the following ditty about Forbes:


A haze of smoke drifts from the pitcher’s mound

Where Brock (or “Fat Joint”) Forbes can now be found.

All know performance boosting drugs are banned

But drugs that make you worse? Those are just grand!


In terms of baseball rankings Brock is meager

His bat is weak—his blunt is the big leaguer

Dazed and high, Brock often flunks his pitch

But measured by his chill Forbes is thrice rich.
