Liebin' 2nd Place Behind
Another shut out. That makes 4 this month. Wakefield was classic knuckleball gold, giving up 2 hits over 8 innings. That's it. 2.
1. Lieber lasted 5 innings. And he was rocked, at least in the 1st and 5th. Two 3-run homers (Doug E. Fresh never fails me. Ever.). His record is now (holding nose) 8-7. How does that feel, Jonny Boy? Not so good, huh?
2. Manny is back. And he made a pertay good defensive play last night.
3. Terry needed this victory. In this park. Against this team. (I hope his wife and kids are in a secure, witness protection-like location for the rest of the series.)
4. Did I mention that the Red Sox are now in their rightful first place position? As in, top o' the division? They are. Indeed.
I would like to extend a great big thank you to the New York Mets. Petey, you still da man. Cliff Floyd, like, you are, like, so, like, tubular. Totally. Our time with him was brief, but treasured. Another cool detail: The Yankees lost with their only starter whose ERA is under 4. They go into this afternoon's game with Eddie Munster Eyebrows Henn, who is 0-2 and 10.29. Good luck. (I like Henny Penny, also, as a possible nickname.)
[Wow, I didn't realize this, but his teeth are a little fangy. I'm definitely going with Eddie Munster.]
I guess it's pretty nice, too, that the O's have been on a bit of a losing streak. It's helpful. (And though I haven't been following their games in detail, I am told, by a die-hard O's fan, that the losses have been due to utter carelessness, thus frustrating to watch. We've all been there, PD.)
One more exciting bit: It is highly possible that Curt Schilling will be making his first start on JULY 9TH against the O's in Baltimore. I will be in attendance, reader. And I can't wait. Maybe we will see John Waters this time and he can introduce us to the great underground Baltimore scene. Or maybe not.
