You study her face so closely like I do noticing that she has a a scar on her cheek from Chicken Pox! Of course. I love that little scar - I have a similar one by my eyebrow and another on my forehead. Subtle imperfections give a person all that much more natural beauty. Or in my case, something to put pink eyeliner over. I'VE GOT ONE TOO!!! AWW, TWINS!!!

I think she looks really great, refreshed and having fun in those pictures... seems she knows how to play baseball.
I was wondering if TPTB knew that aspect about her when they made that episode where the ER docs where playing baseball for 4th of July, I guess?

Actually, I'm fairly sure that every American over the age of eight knows the fundamentals of the game. Not that she doesn't look killer, but I don't get any real "pro" impression just from her swinging a bat. Every child in the country is basically capable of swinging, running the bases, and covering the positions. And anyone from Boston generally knows the game rediculously well as it's our statewide heartache.

Hee. As a public-schooler gone private high, I have not so fond memories of the first intro to baseball at age five. I still remember playing in a poorly lit gym and not grasping the concept of tagging properly - I didn't get that you had to have a ball to tag someone, so I just ran around whacking people at screaming "You're OUT!" Poor kids I was with couldn't figure out why the little midget was running around like a mosquito on crack.

Heh...and I played softball - very enthusiastically - from the age of eight on up through college intramurals and a pick up team at my job. My husband was a Little League pro and brags about being 'scouted' in high school before cutting two fingers off in shop class and not being able to play in his senior year. Neither of ours have an interest in the game (despite one being told he SHOULD play because he 'has a good hip swivel in his swing' by his PE teacher). And so we are a soccer family....sigh.

I got into the girlie sports instead. Field hockey, lacrosse, and of course figure skating (I placed fifth in the Junior Amateur Worlds when I was 11, but quit because of school). Baseball - love it, don't play it. I just root for Big Papi on tv.

Okay, I haven't been on this thread before but yuuus, Maura does look amazing ^exactly i have no hand eye coordination what so ever but i still know how to play baseball simply from living in MA. i mean i can swing at a ball i think anyone can. but maura sure does look great doing it.... Hee. As a public-schooler gone private high, I have not so fond memories of the first intro to baseball at age five.

Poor kids I was with couldn't figure out why the little midget was running around like a mosquito on crack. HAHAHAHAHA I just felt like I needed to comment on Maggie's post... HILARIOUS! That sounds like something I would do, so thank heavens my school never introduced baseball, (mainly 'cause it's in England) or else I would caused so many injuries! My experience of American sports only goes as far as softball which we played at a friend's Thanksgiving party... I got very competitive and in the end, I hurt three people and most just laughed at me because I was the only one running around screaming words of encouragement to a group of drunken men who supposedly 'made up my team.' BRILLIANT image though Maggie, it made me laugh!!
