Hobbs Cain
Hobbs Cain is a player for the Canada Moist Talkers.
Hobbs' appearance bears mentioning due to the choice to don his old private school uniform jacket, which hangs loosely across his shoulders over his jersey. While not to regulation, there seems to be no movement on behalf of the ILB to enforce the removal of the jacket.
When asked about his prior splorting experience, Cain stated that the rules of Blaseball were “much simpler” than he was used to, and cited a game played between Hobbs and his best friend in their youth. No amount of rules explanation reduced the interviewer’s confusion as to the nature of said game, but the consensus was reached that it was, indeed, a deeply complex splort and definitely earned Cain a place on the Moist Talkers’ batting lineup.
The Leviathan
Hobbs Cain rarely hits harder than a single, but upon reviewing bootleg Moist Talker footage, fans have connected Hobbs' more impressive hits with the serendipitous appearance of a massive Phycodurus eques emerging from the clouds, circling above the arena and then disappearing into the misty heavens. Cain spoke quite frankly on the connection in an ensuing press release by explaining that "Well of course I hit better when the Leviathan appears. That's how I know I have it's favor." Hobbs claims that the Leviathan communicates telepathically with him in the form of burbles or warbles, much akin to the audio of the video attached.
Trivia
- Cain was recently described as a "triple threat" in the Halifax Gazette.
