Meck: Tim Hudson is keeping the ball down and his record is going up ?
Update on Lance Cormier ?
Willie Harris: 6 for 6 [ Sat nite] .. 4 for 4 with 6 RBI'S in the first 4 innings has to be a rare feat?

Key to him being on a roll ?
Bobby: 'The big thing for Chipper is his health.' [ His feet].

[Night games] .. 'Snacks before the game. '
'After the game .. Might be fish .. Steak filets .. '
How's Dr. Jack Llewellyn doing ? [ the great sports psychologist]

T I M E spells L O V E
Written by Eddie Carswell and Michael O'Brien
Written by Eddie Carswell and Michael O'Brien
Father's Day, Mother's Day, EVERY Day.
T I M E spells L O V E
Throw me the ball Daddy
I've been waiting all day
I'm so glad you're home and we got some time
So Let's go out and play
Just me and you
It's my favorite thing to do
Daddy I'm tellin' the truth
Chorus
T I M E time
Spells L O V E love
And Love is the one thing
This world needs more of
The choice is up to you
So what will you do
With your T I M E Time
and your L O V E love
I'll never forget you Daddy
You taught me the game so well
It's taken me places I never dreamed
So many stories to tell
How the time has come and gone
And now I have a son of my own
And I'm making sure your memory lives on
Bridge
I've heard it said a time or two
This game of life can take from you
But I found out love isn't really love
Till you give it away
