All Star Game recap via my tweets
I really enjoyed the All Star Game this year. I thought the tributes were really nice. I really wish they had done something to for Brian Stowe & Shannon Stone, though.
I decided to recap the ASG by posting what I tweeted about it. I did this a couple times for the school newspaper. It seemed to work out pretty well. Don’t forget to follow me: @Samantha_1675
Introduction to a baseball addict
Here at Sam’s Hits (and Misses), you’ll be exposed to my thoughts and opinions on baseball, music and probably some pop culture thrown in for good measure.
If you’ve read my bio, kudos to you. If you haven’t, what are you waiting for? To sum it up, I am a recent Wingate graduate with a B.A. in Communications (focus in print journalism). I need music, baseball, to read and write to survive.
I also play fantasy baseball (currently in three different leagues) and collect baseball cards.
Things I’m currently happy about:
~The South Carolina Gamecocks are going back to Omaha to defend their title!
~Tommy Hanson’s career high 14 Ks, Dan Uggla’s bat coming out of sedation, Brian McCann being on FIRE and the Braves six game win streak (and a winning road trip).
~Nate McLouth will be rehabbing soon; hopefully this means Jason Heyward will follow suit.

Let’s get a discussion going. Which pitchers would you send to the ASG? Halladay and King Felix are a given. Jon Lester has as many wins as Doc, so he should go too. I’d also send Jair Jurrjens,Jonny Venters and Craig Kimbrel. Josh Beckett makes a good case too. What our your thoughts?
