Notes: My apologies on the brief hiatus from sombrero tracking. I was in Springfield for the Missouri high school baseball finals and following the draft like a mad man upon returning. Anyway, back to Powell’s sombrero. It was unfortunate that the game lasted 14 innings on Saturday night, because three of his four strikeouts came in the ninth inning or later. To his credit, he did manage to mix in a knock and ground out a few times to avoid one of the platinum variety. But then again, he was the only batter retired by a fiery Johnathan Papelbon, who was ultimately tossed for acting like an idiot.
Total 2011 Sombreros: 36
