The Greek God of Errorless Fielding

Kevin Youkilis, once known as the Greek God of Walks, broke Steve Garvey's record today

Youkilis was the history-maker, surpassing Steve Garvey and setting a Major League record by playing consecutive game No. 194 at first base without an error.

I go "off topic" (heck, it is baseball) because it is an impressive accomplishment, considering all the things that could go wrong around first base. And I have to mention a Jewish ballplayer with a Greek last name any chance I get. Back to the Cubs and spin soon.....
