Adventures in sock hunting...

To further prove my intense attention to detail and my lack of a life....


Last week, August 15, Corey Hart hit a home run early in the game (it was televised) and he was wearing his pants to his ankles. A few innings later, he makes a play in right field and there he is, socked up.

The next game I watched, the starting pitcher was Dave Bush, who's a sock wearer. Corey, too, socked it up.

Saturday night's game vs. the Astros and Jeff Cirillo starts at second. He's all socked up, properly old-school for the old man. Beginning of the 9th inning and the Brewers do a double switch to keep the pitcher in, but move his batting order. Cirillo gets moved to third. When he comes out of the dugout for the bottom of the 9th, he's not wearing the socks anymore.


What's with all this sock craziness? And really, why am I so interested?
