Hamilton's first homer
I thought it may be a good idea that a thread be made regarding Hamilton's first homer.

Re: Hamilton's first homer
I liked his comment about it in the dugout.

Re: Hamilton's first homer
I thought it was funny how the guys gave him the cold shoulder at first when he got back to the dugout.

Re: Hamilton's first homer
Man...that sure was purdy. Hope to see many more of those.
As several have posted, he has a lot of learning to do at the big league level, but he seems to posess the paitence and innate skills to succede if given the chance. Let's hope he gets that chance.

Re: Hamilton's first homer
Josh Hamilton is Roy Hobbs.
From this day forward I refer to him as "The Natural". |

Re: Hamilton's first homer
It's really a shame that we couldn't pick up the win to go with Josh's home run.

Re: Hamilton's first homer
I was just as impressed with the two walks. I believe, in eight plate appearances this year, he has three walks. Simply lovely.
