Rabbit eating my plants?


This might be the bunny rabbit that has been eating the strawberry leaves, and other ornamental plants. We would be lucky if it was only one.

Late Daffodils and Early Irises

Tigers vs Orioles discussion last night


There was a bench clearing discussion last night after the Orioles' Bud Norris beaned the Tigers' Torii Hunter. Norris had just given up a two run homer to Ian Kinsler.

Hunter said something to Norris, but it was Norris who was ejected from the game. I am always reminded of the book, The Baseball Codes: Beanballs, Sign Stealing, and Bench-Clearing Brawls: The Unwritten Rules of America's Pastime by Jason Turbow and Michael Duca, when these things happen. Obe of the rules is you can bean the next guy if you a pissed you gave up a homer. I didn't see Kinsler celebrate inappropriately so I think it wasn't justified.
