Dodgers Jump On Johnson's Balls

I've got no right to make fun of a 295 game winner, but perhaps Randy Johnson should have taken notes on how to throw strikes from this guy...


As Vin once said twenty-one years ago, "not a bad opening act."

You just never what you are going to see during a baseball game, and those in attendance at yesterday's game were witness to something never done before...

Orlando Hudson wasted no time making history with the Dodgers.

In his first home game of the season, the second baseman hit for the cycle Monday against the Giants to become the first Dodgers player to hit for the cycle since Wes Parker did it on May 7, 1970, at Shea Stadium.

"It was a great day. Thirty-nine years ago, I wasn't even around," said Hudson, 31. "It feels great to be a part of it."

It was also the first time a Dodgers player had hit for the cycle at Dodger Stadium.

I keep waiting for the wrist injury to flare up, but so far Orlando Hudson has been nothing short of amazing.

Also, it was the first time that Randy Johnson has ever lost a game at Dodger Stadium.

An off-day today, but stay on the lookout for SOSG's first off-day puzzle of 2009.
