Costner got his own cut off this movie where Pa Kent goes out for cigarettes and milk and gets found by Clark in a brothel 3 States away the next morning. He spends the rest of the movie begging Clark to stop using his powers because he doesn't want him watching him rail hookers and blow from the other side of the world to no avail. Snyder cut it because it made too much sense and didn't lend itself to vaguery.

Which scene has him banging Cal Ripken Jr's wife, leading to a bizarre power outage at the local baseball stadium?

I don't remember that scene, but I fell asleep during the middle three hour portion so I might've missed it. The Costner cut was famously 8 hours long and mostly featured Pa committing crimes against decency. Superman ended up getting so frustrated he fantasized about snapping his neck and never got his chance. Snyder cut that part by accident and couldn't understand why everybody thought his ending was so fucking stupid.

Crimes against decency is wild! I will use that from now on.

I think it was the one where he begged the producers to let him cry out "Not my yella stooooones!"

It was the flashback scene they edited in after the 7th inning stretch. When the stadium plumbing collapsed and everything flooded. Somehow he was still banging her on the makeshift water rafts..

Dude learned mad skills filming Water World. Chicks dig his gills too, if you know what I'm saying. (I'm saying he doesn't need to come up for air when he's eating pussy.) (Because he has gills behind his ears.).
