The LA EMMYS


I finally made it to the EMMYS!! 
This weekend I had the honor of presenting with the legendary voice of the LA Clippers, Ralph Lawler. 

We had a pretty funny moment backstage before walking out, when we realized neither of us could pronounce the names of half the spanish nominees. We asked around and no one could help us backstage, so we looked at each other, shrugged and said "here goes nothing" as we walked out.

Mike Trout's First Career Cycle


My first sideline reporting job with the Angels turned out to be a pretty memorable night. It was Josh Hamilton's birthday and Mike Trout's first career cycle. 

It's been a fun journey with Trout. I remember talking to him the first day he was brought up to The Bigs, going to his first All Star Game, flying out to NJ the day he won Rookie Of The Year, and being the first person he talked to after his first cycle. So it's only fitting that my first Gatorade shower was with Trout. 

While he was answering my question, my producer started chanting in my ear, "Alex move, Alex move, Alex move..." I had no idea what he was talking about, until I saw the Gatorade bin being poured over Trout's shoulder! I jetted out of there as fast as I could, and made it without a single splash on me...I still have no idea how I did that.
