Sunday’s best, only featuring first basemen…
Hitters
Mark Teixeira- Atlanta Braves (1B)
Vs. Seattle Mariners
3-for-4, 3 HR, 4 RBI, 3 R
Teixeira and Chipper Jones may be the NL’s best 3-4 hitting duo. Three home runs will help Tex keep pace with Mr. .400.
Prince Fielder- Milwaukee Brewers (1B)
Vs. Baltimore Orioles
3-for-4, 2 HR, 3 RBI, 3 R
Isn’t being a vegetarian supposed to make you not fat?
Kevin Youkilis- Boston Red Sox (1B)
Vs. St. Louis Cardinals
2-for-5, 2 HR, 3 RBI, 2 R, 1 BB
He does more than just draw walks, ladies.
Pitchers
Andy Pettitte- New York Yankees
Vs. Cincinnati Reds
Win: 6 IP, 0 ER, 4 K
Please read this. Dusty Baker is so incompetent it’s hilarious.
Ryan Dempster- Chicago Cubs
Vs. Chicago White Sox
Win: 8 IP, 1 ER, 4 K
So maybe Dumpster won’t rear his ugly head before this season is over?
Tim Hudson- Atlanta Braves
Vs. Seattle Mariners
Win: 7 IP, 0 ER, 2 K
It’s kind of interesting that Hudson is the only pitcher of the A’s Big Three to leave Oakland and find success. Billy Beane knows what he’s doing out there.
The worst of Sunday
Chris Young- Arizona Diamondbacks (CF)
Vs. Minnesota Twins
0-for-4, 2 K
Javier Vazquez- Chicago White Sox
Vs. Chicago Cubs
Loss: 6 IP, 4 ER, 4 K, 5 BB
Hey these two guys were traded for each other! Cool.
