Jacoby Ellsbury Makes His Mark

Jacoby Ellsbury has made Beantown history this evening, becoming the first Boston Red Sox player ever to steal 55 bases in a single season.

The centerfielder doubled and stole third in the first inning against the Chicago White Sox to pass Tommy Harper, who snagged 54 bags back in 1973. This should come as no surprise, since Ellsbury swiped 50 bases last season, when he was still a big league baby.

Let us not forget he was also responsible for giving everyone in the country a free taco during the 2007 World Series. Way to go, buddy!

Free Tacos For All!

Dear Jason Bartlett,

Thanks for the taco.

Love,

P.S. Comments are broken. Not sure why, but maybe they'll be fixed later this afternoon.

Sometimes someone sends you something so awesome you just have to share it with the world. This is one of those times.

A snippet...

Stealing Bases For America

In an effort to help fight terrorism and give Americans the free tacos they deserve, Taco Bell will give 1 crunchy taco to everyone in the country, if any player steals a base during the World Series.

That's right. Free tacos for everyone.

Too bad the Mets aren't in it.

Enjoy this short clip of Coco Crisp attempting to explain the Taco Bell situation to teammate Royce Clayton, who immediately comes up with a way to scam more free food (curtsy to Home Run Derby for the video.)
