Doug Padilla: Oh brother
While the Weaver brothers had an awkward day after Jered was recalled to replace Jeff, it was another set of siblings that had a completely positive experience.
The Angels' Maicer Izturis and the Dodgers' Cesar Izturis not only were on opposite sides Friday, they each were in the starting lineup. The oddest thing of all is that the natural shortstops both were playing third base. The only negative was that somebody had to lose.
When Maicer Izturis laced a line drive toward third base in the fifth inning, you had to wonder if Cesar wanted to catch that one more than any other, or if he was more inclined to let it go so he could help out his brother. In the end, a leaping Cesar couldn't reach the liner and Maicer was aboard with a hit.
If only Bengie Molina was around so he and brother Jose could look on fondly.
