Eastern League All-Star "Game"

I spent most of yesterday in Norwich, CT at the Eastern League All-Star Game.  The South Division was coached by Akron's Tim Bogar and the Aeros had six players there.  Dodd Stadium is a pleasant place to watch baseball and the concession prices, relative to most stadiums, are excellent (2 buck hot dogs, 4 dollar 20oz beers!).

Unfortunately, the game was fogged out after three innings.  Since the gates opened hours early, I was able to watch batting practice and get some pictures for LGT.  

Here are the some really crappy videos of AstroCab, Barton, and Brown:

AstroCab is a blonde haired girl???

All this time I thought it was our future SS?!?!?!

Re: Eastern League All-Star "Game"
If Omar Vizquel was a blonde woman, she would be the most famous athlete in the world -- and nobody would be doubting her HOF credentials.  Or the yellow suits for that matter.

Re: Eastern League All-Star "Game"
I forgot AstroCab wears number 13 too.  Any relevance to Vizquel or just a coincidence?

Re: Eastern League All-Star "Game"
Drub is Venezuelan. I am almost positive I've read Vizquel was his hero or whatever growing up, as I suspect Vizquel is for 99% of middle infielding Venezuelan children.

Wow.  Brown has a really nice swing.
