Murphdog

Murphdog hit his first major league homerun! Here's the story from Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe.

NEW YORK -- David Murphy led off the first game of yesterday's day-night doubleheader by slamming a Jaret Wright fastball into the right-field bleachers at Yankee Stadium for his first major league home run. Tall, lanky, and with a sweet swing, Murphy, the Red Sox' first selection in the 2003 draft, had waited a long time for this.
