Orange You Glad For A Rally Victory?

The summer’s hottest new fashion trend… oh-so-hip orange protective glasses. All the cool kids are wearing them.

After seeing an eye specialist earlier in the day, Kevin Youkilis and his watery and swollen eye weren’t ready to swing a bat at the plate – but he did make it into the game in the 9th as a defensive replacement.

Thankfully, Jason Varitek and Mike Lowell didn’t need any orange-colored glasses to see the ball well, and drive in some runs for the come-from-behind victory over the Diamondbacks.

You just know Papi’s kicking himself that he missed out on orange goggle day. Except that his pair would’ve been bedazzled somehow.

    Ha! Youk looks pretty goofy, but at least that’s probably better than seeing his eye underneath…

    That comeback was pretty awesome!

    Between his orange ones, Beckett’s green ones. I guess I am out of the loop, my Oakley’s are blue. :)

    He can see the ball clearer with his orangevision than any dirty Yank around… I’m looking forward to the upcoming series. Youk just needs to throw down a couple of Purples, then he’ll be seeing clear as anything.
