  2. As major league debuts go, a reliever can't deliver a line much better than this: two innings, no hits, no walks, four Ks. Those were Neftali Feliz's(notes) numbers from Monday night. There are plenty of logical reasons to discount the 21-year-old's performance, of course. It was just two innings against the A's, one of the American League's least productive lineups. And one of the Ks was Jack Cust(notes). Everyone strikes him out. Still, there's no such thing as an unimpressive 101 miles an hour. That was the radar reading for Feliz's final pitch: 101. He hit triple-digits more than once, actually, and touched 99 eight other times. Feliz faced the top of the Oakland batting order in the sixth inning and struck out the side (all swinging). He then punched out Cust, coaxed a groundball from Ryan Sweeney(notes) and a foul pop from Tommy Everidge(notes). Two innings into his big league career, Feliz remains perfect. He entered the season as the top prospect in Texas' system according to Baseball America, so the success isn't a complete surprise. Feliz will be a starter long-term, and presumably a good one. But over the final two months of the 2009 season, he'll be a member of the Rangers' bullpen. If he brings tonight's stuff to the ballpark every day, he'll be simply unfair. He should have been a sideshow in a game that featured a walkoff triple from Rajai Davis(notes), eight strikeouts from Brett Anderson(notes), five innings of one-hit ball from Dustin Nippert(notes) and a rare blown save from CJ Wilson(notes). But in the fantasy community -- or at least among dynasty owners -- Feliz was the story. Everything else was distraction.

  4. Oher's father, murdered while Oher was a junior in high school, was not involved in his upbringing. His mother was addicted to crack cocaine. As a result, he received little constructive attention during his formative years. He repeated both first grade and second grade, and attended eleven different schools during his first nine years as a student. He also alternated between time spent in various foster homes and periods with no fixed address until he was sixteen years old.[1] That year, Oher applied for admission to a private school, Briarcrest Christian School, at the instigation of acquaintance Tony Henderson, with whom he was staying temporarily. Henderson was sending his son to the school in order to fulfill the dying wish of the boy's grandmother, and he decided that Oher might as well come along. Although the school's football coach was interested in Oher, school administrators did not feel that he was capable of handling the school's academic workload due to his scant educational background; however, he was admitted after he attempted to qualify for admission through a home-study program that removed him from the public education system.[1] A couple with a daughter at the school, Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy, allowed Oher to move in with them and began taking care of his needs after becoming familiar with his difficult personal circumstances. They also connected him with a tutor, who worked with him for twenty hours a week, eventually bringing his low-D performance up to a 2.05 grade point average. A series of internet-based courses from Brigham Young University served as replacements for poor marks earned earlier in his academic career, enabling him to become eligible to play football in college.[1]
