Home from Vermont. Double header in the morning. Went to the park near my house to hit off the tee a little. The prospect of hitting tomorrow after a week of not swinging horrified me to the point that I dragged my tee out of my bag and hit in the dark while keeping one eye out for rats.
Youk is in town. He got traded to the White Sox a few days ago and they are here for the weekend. I think the White Sox are a good fit for him, and he is going to tear it up in Chicago. I saw that he went 3 for 3 in one of his first games. Funny, while I am playing third base and trying my best to hit off a college kid tomorrow, Youk will be playing third base down the street at a little place called Yankee Stadium hitting off god knows what monster on the Yankee staff. Same game, different stakes I suppose. Good luck tomorrow, Youk!
