Standing Ovation for A-Rod in NY

Baseball Briefly

Congratulations, Pete Orr, from Richmond Hill, Ontario, on hitting his first major league home run!
It came in the game between Mets and Braves,
off Roberto Hernandez, in the eighth inning on Monday, the 25th, at Shea Stadium.
He wears #4 in honor of the great hockey player from Ontario, but apparently there's no relation.

Jamie off to a 4-0 start. Monday M's won in Anaheim.
Today they beat Rangers in Arlington, 7-4.
Joel got a win and Adrian had a home run.
Way to Go, M's!

Meanwhile, Alex Rodriguez went 4 for 5, driving in 10 RBIs in New York.
I saw the game and A-Rod hit three homers off Bartolo Colon:
a three-run in the first, a two-run in the third, and a grand slam in the 4th.
He had a couple more at-bats to try for a cycle homer!!
He hit the grand slam on 3-2 pitch,
Colon's 95 mph fast ball right down the middle,
to the deepest part in the center field, into the black seats.
He had a few defensive gems as well.
