It looks like the Red Sox put on their hitting shoes today.
It's already 4-1 Sox in the bottom of the second, in Game 1 of a double-header. Millar missed a Grand Slam because of the wind, but still drove in three with a wall-ball double.

I have tickets to the five o'clock game, I have to start getting ready to drive up, it's going to be COLD evening at Fenway--I'm looking forward to seeing Ichiro, but I hope the Sox take both games. :)

3. Ichiros's hitting .331 with 11 RBIs so far this season.
He has TWO stolen bases already today---he is a GREAT ballplayer, one of the best.

5. Hes quite a hitter, if anyone gets Teddy Ballgames' 400
it would be him.

6. He is really a 'complete' ballplayer--he can run the bases, ...
hit for contact or for power, and he plays the field with the best of the game. There's always a stir of excitement when he's in a game, you know you're likely to see something great---like the other day when he climbed the outfield wall to rob a home run shot.

2. Thanks for the reminder--forgot they were playing two today because
of the weather!

Have fun! Catch a home run ball for me!

4. Our seats are behind third base, a good place to watch the game,
but any balls coming our way will be foul balls. ;)
