Fluff: Notgardo Love

From the Chron:

Strangely enough, the star of the Vizquel Gold Glove ceremony was backup catcher Eliezer Alfonzo. Vizquel invited Alfonzo, "my Venezuelan partner" to join him because "I like his company."

When Vizquel tipped his cap to the cheering crowd, Alfonzo tipped his cap, too. After Vizquel received the trophy, he handed it to Alfonzo, who raised it triumphantly over his head and later said, "I wanted to run around the bases with it, but somebody took it from me."

Said Vizquel, "I expect him to invite me to his (ceremony) - if he ever plays."

That's just a great little detail about my boy Notgardo to follow up the awesome homestand sweep story. And Omar has good taste in friends. Gotta love the kid.
