I know, it's funny to me. We have just never had an international prospect with that kind of hype before.

Boston fans(ones actually from Boston)
does the measurement on this seem right
http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=9055963
387 ft
I for-sure thought that was his 4th 450+ ft HR, over the middle of the monster, down into the parking garage

IIRC that part of left field where the ball appears to have gone is around 348 ft. from home and when you sit in the monster seats it really feels like you are looking straight down onto the parking garage.

That looks like a pretty damn good estimate to me.

They gave out maracas and some other weird instrument last year too. I'm definitely watching that game on mute.

No, they're going to give them to random New Yorkers on the condition that they play them outside of your place of residence for 8 hours at a time.

For some reason, I was thinking that Hellboy was left handed when I typed that.

Also, Sowers didn't strike guys out like Hellickson.
