Ken Davidoff's 7th-inning stretch
What team cap does David Naughton's ski bum character wear on the slopes in the 1984 film "Hot Dog: The Movie"?
ANSWER BELOW
LCS losers' needs
Brewers: Improved defense and a remade setup crew for closer John Axford.
Milwaukee's Shaun Marcum, who fell apart down the stretch, needs more stamina to get through a full season.
Tigers: More starting pitching options and an upgraded left side of the infield.
LCS losers'
free agents' status
Prince Fielder, Milwaukee. It's very unlikely that he'll be back. Baltimore, Washington and Texas are potential suitors.
Francisco Rodriguez, Milwaukee. He'll go elsewhere to close. A deep field of free-agent closers also will include Heath Bell, Ryan Madson and Jonathan Papelbon.
Magglio Ordoñez, Detroit. If he wants to keep playing after refracturing his right ankle, he might have to win a job somewhere.
Quote of the week
"I think tonight was one of those great ballgames that I think you will continue to see [between] the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers. That's what you're in for, so I've got to say to those of you that have bad hearts, watch yourself."
