Nick Jonas: Teen Heartthrob and Home Run Charm
Six home runs, spread across three players, with each hitting two apiece, were knocked out in the Cubs 7-3 victory against the Rockies.
Carlos Pena and Aramis Ramirez each hit two for the Cubs while Carlos Gonzalez supplied two of his own for the Rockies. That many home runs spread across such a small group of players is an odd combination and not one I remember seeing. While one could blame the always pesky Wrigley winds for the barrage, something from the AP Recap caught my eye:
“Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers took batting practice at Wrigley Field on Monday while the Cubs went through their pregame stretches, before the gates were opened to the fans. Jonas, a righty swinger, took a few swipes, enough to demonstrate that he isn’t headed for the big leagues any time soon.”
I assume Jonas, upset with his own batting practice performance, threw a few bats in anger, not knowing that he had grabbed Pena, Ramirez, and Gonzalez’s game bats by mistake, imbuing them with his powers. I mean, is there another explanation?
