Evan Longoria Bashes Rays Past Red Sox

Stephen Kersey — Sun, 10 May 2009 03:52:44 +0000

Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays still gets questioned about Desperate Housewives. He still gets asked about Tony Parker of the San Antonio Spurs. However, Evan Longoria (no relation to Eva Longoria) is quickly making a name for himself.

In his second season in the big leagues, Longoria might be the hottest hitter in the entire game. Against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday, he went 2-for-4 with a walk, three runs and five RBI. In the first inning, Longoria hit a two-run homer that put the Rays up for good. When the bashing was all done, the Rays had a 14-5 victory over the Red Sox.

Helping Longoria bash were Carlos Pena, Pat Burrell, Akinori Iwamura and Ben Zobrist. Each of those hitters finished with two RBI. On the mound, Scott Kazmir gave up three earned runs in five innings to pick up his fourth win of the season and lower his ERA to 5.92.

For the Red Sox, Jon Lester gave up eight earned runs in 4.1 innings and now has a 6.31 ERA on the season. Despite the loss, the Red Sox are still 19-12 on the season, while the Rays are 15-17.

The 23-year-old Longoria is hitting .367 with 11 homers and 44 RBI. The RBI total is the highest in all of Major League Baseball. If he keeps hitting at this pace, he may get his own ABC television show before too much longer.

Uh, Does Eva Longoria Parker Look Fat to You?

Jodie Lynn Boduch — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 03:18:33 +0000

Or is it just crazy talk underscoring the Hollywood obsession with thinness nearly unachievable by mere mortals who don’t have access to personal trainers and high-end body treatments?

True, the super-duper-cutie pie and wife of San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker did pack on a few pounds for her role in Desperate Housewives:

This reminds us: We couldn’t help but notice how all-too-happy co-star Felicity Huffman was to blab about Eva’s fatness. (Yeah, she disguised it as a she-isn’t-preggers commentary but you can almost hear the suppressed glee nonetheless).

But anyway, this is a picture dated just a few days ago—that is, in the midst of the Big Fat Eva chatter. If this is a chubby gal, then somebody had better give this size 4 bloggerette/gym rat an all-expense paid trip to fat camp.

Eva Longoria Passes Gas, Keeps the Mystery

Jodie Lynn Boduch — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 04:47:38 +0000

From Eva Longoria‘s lips to US Weekly‘s ready ears comes the following no-need-to-elaborate quote on the looker’s domestic life with hubby and San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker. (Yours truly spotted this in the mag at the gym last night just before the tush-kicking personal trainer ~~acted like we were in boot camp~~ met with us for an hour.)

Anyhoo, quotes like this are the reason “TMI” came into the vocabulary of American pop culture:

“We’re still in the honeymoon phase. I love him—but I don’t fart in front of him! I save it for myself. You have to keep the mystery.”

Nice thought. However, given that such sensual insight has been published in a nationwide celebrity tabloid, it’s a smidge less mysterious.

Now everyone is picturing the cutie pie Desperate Housewives star flirting and nuzzling with Tony and then letting ‘em rip the second he leaves the room for a bathroom break or something. Or at least, everyone reading this post will envision said scenario . . .

Never let it be said that we don’t do our part to help celebrities overshare.

Tony Parker’s Heels

Jodie Lynn Boduch — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 08:51:42 +0000

Yeah, we admit. The title was a hook, and we really only mean one heel. And it’s not the kind his wife and Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria wears or the snazzy sort reviewed daily here.

Alas, the San Antonio Spurs guard has a bone spur (medical/team name pun not intended) on his left heel. The red hot Spurs with a Capital S were Parkerless Tuesday night and lost 88-85 to the Seattle Sonics. The loss marks their third in a row, and the team hasn’t fared well when Parker sits: They’re 1-4 for the games he’s missed.

The taller portion of the Longoria-Parker pair had an MRI yesterday. Coach Gregg Popovich said his star ballhandler (keep it clean, people) will be out indefinitely.

Yes, we could make a weird joke about Tony Parker injuring his heel while trying on Eva’s heels before the premiere for her film Over Her Dead Body, but does anybody really want to go there?
