Biggest deal in town -- Ortiz again saves day for Sox I'm saying it now: David Ortiz is the best hitter, and clutch hitter, I've ever seen. I also understand why the Sox didn't need to make any deadline trades when this guy's in the lineup.

Promises kept. Matt LaChappa hasn't thrown a pitch professionally in 10 years. He is confined to a wheelchair, and constrained by the physical fallout from back-to-back heart attacks. Yet the San Diego Padres continue to pay him as if he were an active player. It might be the noblest thing they do. (courtesy of the mlb LJ community)

This is a super awesome story. Thanks for posting it. My faith in humanity is restored. The Padres also gained a new fan today.

I thought Mark Cuban was trying to buy the Cubs.

There was a great shot on ESPN with the bat-boy running to retrieve the bats as they were being launched then thinking better of it.

Since the end of the 2004 regular season, Ortiz has come to the plate in a walk-off situations 19 times -- and reached base 16 times. He is 11-for-14 (.786), with 7 HR and 20 RBI. In 2005 and 2006, he is 8-for-9, with 5 HR and 15 RBI! -- The Joy of Sox
