Randy “Now” Ellis broadcasts his fourth annual “Baseball in Music” special Wednesday from 6 - 9 p.m. on WTSR 91.3-FM in Trenton.

Luke (Wake Me Up Before You Go Go) Menard seems like a sure thing to get booted Thursday.  Danny Noriega would be my second guess to be eliminated.

On the girls’ side Kristy Lee Cook and Kady Malloy seem likely to be over.

My favorite male performance was David Cook’s “Hello.”

Don’t you cringe when Ryan Seacrest calls us “friends?”
