Is It Cold In Here, Or Is It Just Papi?

David Ortiz has been in a tiny bit of a slump at the plate for most of the beginning of the season - not sure if you heard anything about that. So when Big Papi jacked a grand slam last night in the 3rd inning, to put the Red Sox up on the Rangers 4-1, his teammates reacted as you'd expect they might... they gave him the cold shoulder.

Aw, Thanks! Tek's smile at about 1:23 is great!

That "Curse this" sign was perfect.

The cold shoulder treatment was too funny. I loved seeing Big Papi's smile later in the game. let's hope the big guy is back!

Trish, your secret is safe with us ;-)

Now I've got to go clean my house.

Trish, watch out...you'll jump the fence just like I did! :-)

SO great to see this video!

Good news: Farnsworth is being suspended three games for almost clunking Manny in the head the other night. :-)

That is just about the cutest thing I've ever seen during a ball game. I'm serious. It's things like this that make me love this team - they're so amazing!

I was at the game, but sitting in the right field grandstand, so got to enjoy the grand slam and everything but I'm so grateful there's video of this. SO. Much. Happy.

Hey, if I didn't jump the fence for Clemens twenty years ago I'm not doing it now. :D
