Furcal family forced to evacuate
I have no idea how ballplayers function when stuff happens with their families while they're on the road:
While in Denver on Thursday, Rafael Furcal got an alarming call from his wife. Authorities had issued a mandatory evacuation of their Flintridge neighborhood as the raging Station Fire approached, and she didn't know what to do.
"I tell my wife, 'You know what, get clothes for the kids and take the car and get out of there,'" Furcal said. "Life is more important than anything."
Furcal's house was spared and everyone was alright. Torre didn't start Furcal against the Diamondbacks last night, in part to give him a mental break.
