Josh Hamilton's Batting Average is higher than his OBP

[Al-Hoot]

Can that even be done?

Yes, just don't walk any, or get hit by the pitcher-but get some Sac flies.

Hamilton, after going 3 for 5 with 5 ribbies in Texas's 18-3 trouncing of the Red
Sox, is hitting .413 (19 for 46). He has not walked or HBP. But he has 1 sacrifice
fly. So his OBP = .404 (19 for 47).

.404 ain't bad.

Looking forward to that getting knocked down several pegs tonight...and tomorrow night...and Saturday...and Sunday...

Hmm....what was that line yesterday? 1-4?? I'd call that one down...too bad they couldn't get anyone else out, but that's what happens when you're dealing with injuries to your rotation already.

Whoa, you show your face and give Josh some lip--after we beat the he'll out of you?

And Josh walked twice as well as singled.

Eh, you beat the hell out of our 7th starter...let's see how you fare against Porcello, Scherzer and, oh yeah, that guy named Verlander.

Porcello? Who?
