Seriously?

That's your nephew, for real?

You know Zach?

I am the N and we were all in the same Fraternity at the University of Illinois. We bough the tickets mid-series from the Braves ticket office for $16 a piece and drove down in three cars.

I'll never forget marching into Turner Field singing "Go Cubs Go" as we climbed the stairs to the main entrance with hundreds of braves fans looking on. A great start to an even better night.

Do I know Zach?

Since the day he was born. I sent him this picture and comments so he can see this. This picture also showed up on the Chicagotribune.com in the "show us your pictures" area I think last year or the year before. Did you send that one in too? This picture is more famous than the Mona Lisa. Zach is getting married in Sept. so if you are invited to the wedding I will see you there.

How Many MLB Teams

Don't even have that many fans?

I am jealous

Not only for not going to that game, but not know enough people to get tickets next to spell something longer than Sosa, let alone Grudzielanek.

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
