The most important pitch Brett Myers will make all season comes tomorrow at the Bank. And it doesn't involve a baseball.Mentioned this in today's paper, but I thought it merited more attention on The Blog. Myers will sign autographs from 2 to 3:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Majestic Clubhouse store to help raise money for Juliana Wetmore, a 4-year-old who was born without 40 percent of her facial bones.
Juliana, who lives in Myers' hometown of Jacksonville, Fla., has Treacher Collins Syndrome. She already has had more than 20 surgeries, and the medical bills are piling up. Myers has donated money in the past -- including $20,000 this season -- to help Juliana and her family, and you can help, too. For $15, you get get Myers' autograph. For $20, you can get it twice. And it's all for as good a cause as you can imagine.
(Update: There is, in fact, a number to call to pre-register for the autograph session and/or make a donation. It's 215-463-1000.)

I'd watch out if I were her. She sounds small enough for him to beat on.
That was the worst comment I've ever seen anywhere. Come on, the guy is helping her out. Why are you so negative?
I love it when anonymous people make those types of comments.
Scott, there was a phone number given to call if you were going to the autograph session and the parking lot that you're supposed to use tomorrow. If you see/hear it, could you post it here? I'm going to drive up.
Hey Scott, there was apparently a clip on Comcast tonight that showed Myers grabbing his shoulder. Did he reinjure himself?

Anon: I also saw Myers grab his shoulder. I haven't had a chance to talk to him today, but I don't think you should read too much into it. He did the same thing last week after a throwing session in Kansas City, and everything was fine. I'll try to get an update after the game.
Tom G - bite it
