Some Fun Baseball Notes
Last night, Don Ursillo, the play-by-by guy for NESN, made a very nice catch on a ball fouled out of play. Fielded it cleanly in the air and everything. I wish I could have been watching NESN for that. I'm sure Jerry Remy laughed about it for five minutes or until he started choking, whichever came first.
David Ortiz officially became a naturalized American citizen yesterday, which is cool I guess. So congrats, Big Papi, go get yourself a big-ass SUV to celebrate!
Chipper Jones is more than a third of the way through the season and still battingway too far over .400 to be sane. I think it was like .419 as of last night. I know there's a lot of season left, but it's still a remarkable accomplishment to make it as far as he has. It's also great to see a baseball achievement that can't be immediately attributed to steroid use. Swinging harder really doesn't get you much when you're swinging for a high batting average.
