more MLB misc. and Howard

First, an article about Orioles shortstop Miguel Tejada playing in his 1,100 consecutive game last Tuesday. Here's a couple of quotes from him about it:

"The first day that I started it, I didn't believe I could play in so many games," said Tejada, a former Most Valuable Player and a four-time All-Star to boot. "But like I've said, I like to play every day, and every day I thank God for not being in pain and not being hurt. I'm just happy to see my career going one day at a time."...

"I'm not doing it because I want to catch Cal [Ripken]," he said Tuesday. "I'm just doing it because I'm healthy, I want to play and I think I can play every day. One day, it's going to stop, but God's going to decide it. I'm not going to decide it, because if I'm never hurt, I'm going to be in the lineup every day if the manager decides to put me in there."
