Tony Larussa said that the Reds' Jonny Gomes plays like it's his last game. There's a reason for that. He had a heart attack in 2002. He had one tough life as a teenager. Here's an USA Today article from 2005 on him.

By the way, last night Gomes blasted a three run homer to make the Brewers pay for walking Jay Bruce to get to him. The blast was the margin of victory for a Reds win, their third in a row.
