The Big Piece comes through for our little guy

On the way to Trent's bath tonight, Christine checked in on the Phillies. Ryan Howard was up in the 1st inning of a scoreless game.

"Hit a home run for a sick little boy," Christine said.

I shot her a look. Trent's had a rough go this week with a fever, sore throat and earache, but "those kinds of requests are reserved for kids with cancer," I said.

Apparently not. As requested, Big Brown came through with a three-run home run.
