Yeah, he had the batting title in 2003...Oh, and he also hit two grand slams in one game (one left handed and one right handed!) Not doing so hot tonight, but then again, none of them are!
I actually like Bellhorn. A lot of folks in Boston bitch about him striking out so much (and despite my little comment before) I kind of like his style. He has a great OBP, and I guess I'd rather have him strike out than ground into double plays hitting little duffs up the middle (though, he does seem to do that quite a bit too)...Whatever, I like him, and was so thrilled when he came up big after the hard time he was getting in the Boston press during the playoffs last season.
But when did New Hampshire become--Such a backward wasteland of seatbelt hating crazies?...I mean, only 40 people actually live there. The others are just visitors who come for the tax-free liquor and three inches of novelty coastline. John Hodgeman on The Daily Show (1-30-07)
