My update worked fine.

Sigh.... Offered Akihisa Rin $22M per year for 6 years and he ends up signing with Washington for $14M per year for 6 years. The guy took $36M less to play for Washington. What the hell is wrong with Chicago?

It was 33 and it was the first hot/nice day after a cold winter so many people where working on their "to-do" lists. Besides, its not like a millionaire with an extra $6M per year would live with these types.

Most Career HR, Listed Height 5′ 6″ Or Less

There are 62 MLB players with at least one home run. I couldn't mine it down to 5'6 but I could get it down to 5'8 and the number of NDLB players with home runs while standing only 5'8 tall (or less)?

One. New England's John Bass with two.
