[edit] Why did the DWI source

Get deleted. I heard the story and that was the link to it. Soxrock 17:59, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] First game in 2006

I don't recall Upton being booed or otherwise getting an overly negative reaction following his 2006 callup, as the article indicates. Also, that game wasn't his first ever in the Majors, so why is it particularly notable enough to mention his performance in it vs. other games? -Sliver7 03:12, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Yea I remember hearing about his first game, which I believe was in 2004. If I'm not mistaken, he went 1 for 3 with a walk, single, and k. I payed a little attention to it because I had played against him the year before in high school... -Coastalsteve984 27 July 2007
