Theriot and Carroll are boosting the Houston economy

Nice little story on ESPN.com about the Dodgers' Ryan Theriot and Jamey Carroll's gift to call-ups John Lindsey and Russell Mitchell:

On Friday morning, veterans Ryan Theriot and Jamey Carroll took the team's two first-time September call-ups, John Lindsey and Russell Mitchell, to the mall's Nieman Marcus store and bought them each a suit.

"They told us when we got to Houston, they were going to wake us up one morning and take us to get a big league suit," said Lindsey, adding that he wasn't sure what differentiated a big league suit from a minor league one. "It was unbelievable, just such a nice thing for them to do."
