As I noted yesterday, it's been a rough couple months for Tony LaRussa. There was the falling-asleep-behind-the-wheel DUI he incurred during spring training. Then a player on his squad, Josh Hancock, died in a car crash while intoxicated. Adding to the off-field mess, the Cardinals are limping along so far this season. It was their worst May in 17 years.

But where there is darkness, my friends, you shall soon find light. PETA currently has LaRussa on its ballot for....World's Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrity!

Among the more than 200 sizzling celebs who are vying for this year's titles: country music sensation Carrie Underwood; ravishing redhead Bryce Dallas Howard; sexy starlet Alicia Silverstone; King Kong leading lady Naomi Watts; Live Free or Die Hard hottie Maggie Q; House beauty Lisa Edelstein; Walk the Line's dashing "Johnny Cash," Joaquin Phoenix; Hollywood heartthrob Casey Affleck; hero for animals Milo Ventimiglia; American Idol crooner Ruben Studdard; actor and 30 Seconds to Mars vocalist Jared Leto; Good Charlotte hottie Benji Madden; and dapper emcee Common.

I don't know about you, but if LaRussa finishes behind Ruben Studdard or Benji Madden, I'm going to have to demand a recount.
