Thanks Kay! |

Hicks doesn't deserve two hits like that in one game.

Jax. There also was (maybe still is) a beer out of Jacksonville called Jax. Every bit as bad as Schmidt's. I think Jax is a New Orleans beer also. My brother and I had a huge collection of cans back in the day. My grandparents were world renowned beer drinkers and helped us out a bunch. Okay, I had to look this up. Jax Beer was made in Jacksonville from 1914 until 1956, when it was sold to New Orleans-based Jackson Brewing Company. Another of life's mysteries solved. |

Hicks in June, .409/.500/.409. 9 for 22, all nine hits are singles… some were pretty lucky ones…

If we can just score 4 this inning, we’ll only need 4 in the ninth…

Judge out on a low pitch. Kind of sums up the night. Another lesson on how important defense is with Stanton making a sham out of outfielding. At no time did he look like he was going to catch a ball…
