A couple of quick baseball notes:

The Yankees' Johnny Damon went 6-for-6 yesterday. According to the linked article, "His six hits matched a Yankees record, and tied the American League mark for a nine-inning game."

At the college level, LSU had its 23-game winning streak snapped, in a loss to UC Irvine. The loss occurred in the first game of a two-out-of-three Super Regional series (the round to determine who goes to the College World Series), so the Tigers can still get back into national championship contention.
