I thought he was still on the DL. When do we get him back?
I'm just like everybody else. I have two arms, two legs and 4,000 hits."

What did he do the rest of the game?
He struckout in his next at bat and then I think he was pulled. I don't know why they took him out. Maybe just easing him back into playing everyday.
I am so pumped by this, the timing couldnt work out better, for me at least, as the Bats come to Durham NC this weekend!!!!! I have 3 seats by the visitors dugout, so hope to get a chance to talk to him in his homecoming to NC!
Supposed to be here the whole series. I just ordered 2 more tix for monday as well Where are you at in NC?
I live in Raleigh but I work in Chapel Hill. I'd love to go to Monday's game, but can't take the time off.
I've been keeping up with Hamilton this year, and as a result have developed a liking for your team. I'm actually a Braves fan so I hope I'm welcome here. I'm sorry you guys are having a tough year.
Sorry you live in Raleigh J/K of course, I found my wife in that traffic jam they call a city, married her, and brought her to my neck of the woods Are you a State fan, living in Raleigh? I live a few miles outside of CH, and work in Carrboro. Of course your welcome here, as long as you leave the bad mouthing of our team to us Did you go to Bulls games when they were with the Braves?
Hamilton quickly back in the swing
Has three homers in two games for Bats
HOUSTON -- Johnny Narron, the major-league video/administrative coach, is with Josh Hamilton on Hamilton's stint with Triple-A Louisville.
It must have helped make Hamilton feel right at home in his native North Carolina.
Hamilton, who hit the first pitch he saw for a home run against Charlotte Tuesday night, hit home runs in his first two at-bats in Wednesday's 13-6 victory over Charlotte.

He finished 2-for-5 and is hitting .375 in two games.
Hamilton is eligible to come off the disabled list Sunday. The Reds originally had planned for him to join the club in St. Louis Tuesday after Monday's off day.
Will the fact that Ryan Freel was placed on the DL affect that decision?
"He's eligible to come off Sunday," manager Jerry Narron said.
Johnny Narron will remain with the Bats as long as Hamilton does. Hamilton has had his well-documented problems off the field, and the Reds have been up-front about Narron's role in helping Hamilton both with baseball and away from the game.
