louie, louie!

Quite a feat by Luis Hernandez today. The little infielder, who played for the first Mississippi Braves team in 2005, hit a home run for the New York Mets off Atlanta ace Tim Hudson. It was just the third career homer for the 5-foot-10, 180-pound (maybe) Hernandez in some 300 career at-bats. But that’s not the amazing part. He actually hit the homer after fouling a ball off his right foot and breaking it on the previous pitch. No one knew it was broken until Hernandez tried running the bases, which was painful just to watch.
