I was out at the game(left in the eighth) and ran into Rafael Palmiero(Don't know if I spelled it correctly). His son smashed one out in left center-two run shot.

Rafael has been in town for the whole series. Pretty cool seeing him out at Young Memorial Field.

Did his son not do steroids as well?

RE: Blazer baseball ups record to 5-2
I got there when the score was tied at 1, just in time to see Patrick launch one over the left center field wall, to give UAB a 2-run lead. Defense was rock solid until that 9th inning, when Ball State put together a brief rally. But the Blazers prevailed. Congratulations, fellas! I was wondering, there was another name on the UAB roster that rings of familarity with me...Were my eyes deceving me when I saw the name Ivan DeJesus on it, and is that a coincidence? I remember hearing that name in a major league setting at some time back in the day, but can't put a finger on who he played for.

You're right, but I think it's a coincidence. The Ivan de Jesus you're thinking of has a son by the same name who is playing in the Dodgers farm system.
Our Ivan de Jesus was drafted in the sixth round by the Cubs but chose to come to UAB instead.
