Throw it from the mound

I have a few pet peeves in life and one of them is throwing the ceremonial first pitch from in front of the mound. One good thing you could say about former President Bush is that he threw his first pitches from the rubber. Obama made his left-handed pitch from the rubber as well.

If you ever get the chance, be sure to throw from the rubber.

Vote Pablo!

My favorite Giant has a chance to make the National League All-Star team, but he needs your help by stuffing the ballot box. There are 5 players in contention for the last spot on the team and he's one of them. He's by far the most fun player to watch, he can play 3 positions, can throw with both hands, and he looks like Kung-Fu-Panda.


Plus at the Giant's fanfest, I let him take a picture with me.

You can vote up to 25 times for him! Extra credit to someone who can write a script to vote for him! Go to the page linked above (the Giant's official page) and vote early and often. (I think you can use a fake email address too).
