THE SPANKEES ARE BACK IN TOWN...
No He's Not Sulking...He's Just Nomar Being Nomar...Quiet In The Clubhouse, But Loudly Crushing The Ball...He's Once Again One Of The Best Hitters In The Game
Lately, his actions are his answers. Garciaparra is the Dodgers' hottest hitter, flourishing in the No. 3 spot in the batting order and performing well at first base.In 23 games, he is batting .337 with 25 runs batted in. Half of his 30 hits have gone for extra bases. He is batting .400 with runners in scoring position, delivering memorable moments ranging from a grand slam at Houston to walk-off hits down the first base line at Dodger Stadium in consecutive games to the two-run single that provided the difference in a 3-2 victory Wednesday at Colorado.
SO GOOD, WE CAN TASTE THE GOLD GLOVE:
Nomar is the only first baseman to have handled over 100 chances without an error in 2006...
