From today's DOB blog:
Go to sleep, little ... where'd she go? Matt Diaz crashed into the left-field wall making a spectacular catch a week or so ago at Wide World of Dark Star, and afterward needled Mark Kotsay for shouting "Plenty of room!" as Diaz drifted back to make the catch.Cox gave Diaz the next game off to rest, so he got to spend a lot of quality time with his newborn daughter at the Diaz home in nearby Lakeland. Daddy took something for his stiff neck/back and sat down in his recliner with baby.
"The problem is, when you take a muscle relaxer and you're holding your baby daughter," he said, "and the next thing you know, she's slipped down into your armpit."
Hee! Has anyone heard the name of Baby Girl Diaz yet? I'm always curious about this sort of thing.
ETA: Her name is Anna Grace.
