Reactions to the Bourn Selection

So since the County Clerk was at a surprise barbeque (and then got called in by his employer - an elected representative - to fold flags) and I was out far longer during the day than I expected, we're doing some mop-up work this morning.

First, we should congratulate Michael Bourn for his 1st selection to the All-Star Game.

Ed Wade:
“He’s been a catalyst on our ballclub on both sides of the ball, and this is a kid that works hard and really cares, and it’s great to see him get the center-stage recognition that he deserves.”

Bourn:
“I’m happy to be a part of it, even though we’re not having the season we could be having or should be having. The last month hasn’t gone great for me, but I’ve been able to scrap and stay above water.”
