Theo Epstein is no stranger to disguise, and it seems he may be at it again, this time at a recent Pearl Jam show that drew the ire of some Red Sox fans. The Internet is a wonderful place. Write about Theo Epstein and the controversy surrounding his attendance of a Pearl Jam show one day, receive a picture of the Red Sox general manager wearing a fake mustache at the concert in your email inbox the very next morning! Mrs. Epstein sure seems to be onto our paparazzo [in the picture], but you can't say the same for the lost Allman brother over on the right. Either Epstein is just a little too into his 738th time hearing Yellow Ledbetter or he's just sneaking a nap during one of his only down moments this year.

After yet another dramatic comeback effort, Chipper Jones says he sees a lot of 1995 in 2010. The Braves won in their final at-bat for the third consecutive game and eighth time this season. The Braves' 1995 World Series team collected 25 last at-bat wins. This team is now on pace for 32 of them. Jones, a rookie on that 1995 team, can see some similarities. "Every game we played was 4-3, 3-2, 2-1," Jones said. "It was just one of those years where we didn't score a ton of runs, but we weren't going to give up any either. There were a lot of opportunities for close games. And I can see that happening with this pitching staff. And the offense (even though it) has been inconsistent up to this point, I look for the offense to get better. After just a horrible April, May has been pretty good.

Ubaldo Jimenez overcame the Texas heat, leg cramps, and an Ian Stewart mistake that could have preserved a second no-hitter of the season, but he was still pulled from his start Thursday as a precaution. There was no sense in risking injury. For all the things that have gone wrong this season, losing Jimenez would be tantamount to the Titanic hitting the iceberg. It's not enough to say he's been good. He's been historically great, conjuring up images of Bob Gibson in 1968 and Fernando Valenzuela in 1981.

Nationals principal owner Mark Lerner got a little too close to the action Thursday, receiving stitches after an unfortunate moment during today's batting practice. Lerner, as he occasionally does, was shagging fly balls in full Nationals uniform alongside his team. Standing in right field, where the sun made it difficult to see, Lerner settled under a fly ball. The ball barely glanced off his glove and drilled Lerner, 56, on the bridge of his nose, right between the eyes. "I've never seen blood gush that fast out of someone," said one Nationals player. A trainer rushed to his aid, and Lerner had to be walked off the field with a towel held to his bleeding forehead. Lerner, happily, is doing fine now.

The worry in Cleveland is that Grady Sizemore is looking at surgery on the knee that finds him on the DL. [Sizemore] was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 17, with a deep bone bruise on his left knee. The injury might require surgery, [head athletic trainer Lonnie] Soloff said. For now, the Indians can't offer a timetable for the three-time All-Star's return other than the obvious two weeks he'll be unavailable on the DL. The two absences leave an Indians team already struggling to generate runs without its Nos. 1 and 2 hitters. This marks Sizemore's third trip to the disabled list in the past year. He had been the Tribe's iron man prior to experiencing elbow and abdominal issues in 2009.
