IB,
Bummer just a bummer, keep us posted.

DK got to dress up as a big bird and hit the field with the big boys yesterday. Going into the 9th 6-5 Nats and looked like it might tie, so he got the call to start warming up. By the time he starts getting hot and working up a sweat, game over. After that they told him in no way could he come into the next game (it was a double header).
Actually, not sure how it would have worked, son hasn't faced a live batter since last october, but none the less, he said it was a great learning experience.

BTW, he told me that Pujols is the biggest person he has ever stood close to in his adult life. The man is HUGE!

Funny - my son said a similar thing about Ken Griffey - said he was next to him during a delay for some rain showers - and that he didn't look the same size as on TV, he was a lot bigger in person.

IB ...

Here's hoping that the recovery and rehab are ahead of schedule.

Ref 'big guys' ... our son got to enjoy a bus ride last ST with the "Big Unit" ... son had been advised to dress nicely for the trip and so he did ... collared shirt, nice trousers, etc. and of course everybody else was in levis etc. While they were standing around waiting for the bus, Randy Johnson walks up behind him and says, "So, you got a photo shoot after the game?" (Mental picture ... very embarassed young guy dressed all nice, probably looking at the ground trying to find a hole to crawl into.) But I know he thought it was pretty special to have a legend talking to him, even if it was to give him a ration of ...
