A baseball note I didn't get to earlier today in my quick sports note...
Something my mom would totally dig...
Former Oakland A's ace Tim Hudson now pitches for the Atlanta Braves, and is still a great pitcher, but not quite the badass he was in Oakland. Comparing 36 year old athletes with their own 24 year old counterparts isn't really fair.
In any case, the other day he pitched seven or eight innings without giving up any runs, and only three hits, dominating his opponents. The game ended 2-0, with the Braves beating the Toronto Blue Jays in an interleague game.
Being credited for a full victory, Hudson hit a two run homer, accounting for the games only runs.
Doing it yourself on the diamond...
I love it when a pitcher helps himself.
