Ding ding ding

That was the "easy" one.

The "hard one" may be beyond guessing. I'd be impressed if anyone could do it without cheating.

I cheated and looked it up. Didn't even realize they were switch hitters.

So the second answer, for those who didn't look it up, to the question above was: Nick Swisher.

Her biggest roles were the older daughter Cheyenne in Reba's sitcom and Sam from "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", but she's done other stuff since then

If anyone was wondering about his splits, it sounds like Addison Russel hits better at home.

ok, found it:
So, Hample is not everyone’s favorite. And certainly not Clayton Kershaw‘s. Hample said today, in a series of tweets, “Today I asked Clayton Kershaw if I could have a baseball. He said, ‘No, you got 7,000 of ’em.'”

Hample’s next tweet read, “…it was a blue Father’s Day ball. I said, ‘It would mean so much to me,’ and Kershaw was like, ‘No, it wouldn’t.’ <sigh> Still love him.”

His third and final tweet pertaining to the incident read, “…with that logic, Kershaw’s next paycheck shouldn’t mean all that much to him, right?”

then he goes after crashburn because crashburn is the one that wrote that. lol
