Chris Stewart got some great praise for his game last night for both his arm and his bat by the radio folk, but I most enjoy his enthusiasm. He pumped his fist after each strikeout, running to the dugout before the ump even called 3. Thats the kinda guy you can tell enjoys playing--I like seeing him behind the plate.

Was att the game on Sunday and Affeldt was throwing heat. Struck out five of the six batters faced!

He looked great on the TV side of things. Throwing the curve for strikes, pounding the zone with his fastball. I like.
