The Red Sox, meanwhile, formed an unholy alliance with their 1975 World Series foes, the Cincinnati Reds.
The “Vote Red’’ campaign has the Sox pushing for Joey Votto in return for the Reds promoting Youkilis,
who is a Cincinnati native who played high school and college ball there.

That's good ... cleaning home plate with your foot would have been a sad way to end up on the DL.

@Rockhead,

saw one awarded the other day, but was perplexed as to why it wasn't a triple and an error (forget the circumstances, but it wasn't a clean play)...

Which means Hughes goes to the bullpen. Which means A.J. Burneett becomes a starter on my fantasy team. Which blows.

The NY Times just posted (as of 9:56am EST) that George Steinbrenner has died. No actual coverage yet...

WABC-TV in New York reported that Steinbrenner, the Yankees' owner since 1973, suffered a massive heart attack.

Steinbrenner, who celebrated his 80th birthday on July 4, was taken to a Tampa hospital after emergency crews responded to his home Monday night.

2011 All Star Game in Phoenix ... I hear people were grumbling about the low-90's heat in Anaheim yesterday ... here's this week's forecast in Phoenix.

2011 looks to be the most air-conditioned All Star game in history.
