Lowell turns the hidden ball trick

Also, how cool is it that Mike Lowell pulled off the hidden ball trick again yesterday? It's only been done twice this century, both times by Lowell. Lowell ended a five year MLB drought of no hidden-ball tricks when he got Brian Schneider last year, as Retrosheet's list of every hidden ball trick ever turned in MLB shows. Luis Terrero looked utterly stunned.


God, that was SO much fun to see. I love how the entire team was in on it... the pitcher glancing at him and keeping his face completely blank, staying off the dirt... the whole thing was just awesome.


Todd Jones was great too, yeah. Even the cameraman was fooled - they cut to a mound shot, then suddenly you heard the crowd roar...
