Hyun-Jin Ryu and Juan Uribe participated in what I can only assume was a legendary and contentious staring contest. As you certainly noticed, a sly grin can be seen on both, so maybe the strategy was to force the other to drop their guard - no doubt trying to get the other to fall over laughing. I wonder who won. Anybody know?
On the other hand, maybe they're just playing domino's. Which isn't as cool as believing that these BFE's were playing the "blink game."

- Via Tim Brown at Yahoo Sports, "Albert Pujols' touching gesture for brother of Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson."
The Pedersons knew The Pujols Foundation, knew the work it did for people – children in particular – with Down syndrome and other disabilities. Champ did too. From that, they figured Pujols must be a good man. Champ is a pretty good judge of these things."Champ's been wanting to meet him for a long time," Joc said.

- I do miss Russell Martin as a Dodger, but I can certainly appreciate Montreal's native son (and Toronto for that matter) coming home to play ball. Below is a short video of his introduction before taking his first at-bat during the exhibition game at old Olympic Stadium this past Friday.
