Watching the game, 2

Jeff Kent is just unconscious (7-12 and thank god for that short left field wall). Any questions about his clutch ability should go away (not that there ever should have been any questions). And let’s just say it: Kent is a first-ballot hall-of-famer.

Oh, and by the way, what do you think Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez plan to do on their vacations?

Buck O’Neil, 1911-2006

Buck O’Neil deserved to go into the Baseball Hall of Fame before he died. Now it will be up to baseball — meaning the full establishment — to make sure he is enshrined posthumously.

(Read this interview with him from Ken Burns’ famous special.)

Rest in peace, Mr. O’Neil.
