Did you also notice that the 70 year old batting practice coach couldn't throw it where Hamilton liked it in the last round? I don't blame him. He threw 50 something pitches in the first round.

Hamilton put on a good show. It was pretty entertaining to say the least!

I remember hearing about Hamilton a few years back when they did stories on ESPN about sports draft picks and drugs...I'm just happy he got back into a game he naturally excelled at.

I was in the right field bleachers for last night's spectacle. What an amazing atmosphere. I would have sworn that ball that hit the Bank of America sign was going over the facade.

The crowd was absolutely electric. I haven't seen the TV replay, but I'll be sure to check it out tomorrow night. It was a special night, for sure.

I'm not mad that we got Volquez out of the deal. There are other people that we could have given them though. Why not have both? We might be in contention this year if that were the case.
