Courage: Pass It On

Props to Bryce Florie. He's a real man, and he's the kind of guy you want to see succeed wherever he plays, currently with the Marlins if he can make the cut. He was a middle reliever for the Sox in 2000 when a New York Yankee smashed a line drive into Florie's cheekbone.

The ball struck Florie's head with such force that it shot toward third base, and the fielder's throw was made in time to retire Thompson at first. The scorer credited Florie with an assist.

If steroids and Gotham are the dark side of baseball, Florie is the light side, and InstantReplay is rooting for him to make it back to the bigs full-time this year.
