Consecutive Sweeps
And just 3 games later, she makes another appearance ...
I've never seen Wells work so hard. And the Manny grand slam was delicious. Not to mention Bellhorn and Tek!
Holy cow, are you people watching game 3 of the subway series? This is some exciting stuff. Cano just f'd up a routine grounder on 2 outs with runners at the corners. giving the Mets the lead (2-1). Randy, after 112 pitches, was pulled and Gordon (Flash Gordon, according to Morgan. Is that Gordon's nickname or is this guy a Yankee fan?) is now coming in. Randy's been locating pretty well and kept the Mets at 1 for 6 innings, but the Yankees defense hasn't been so hot. Womack screwed up a running catch (while Cliffloyd made a very lovely one a couple of innings back). And this new guy, Kevin Reese is making his major league debut. He bobbled a ball off the wall in left, resulting in a single for the Mets.
Wow! Giambi just completely messed up a play at first by overthrowing to Gordon. 2 more unearned runs. Unreal. 4-1, Mets.
My friend Dan came over to watch the game with us today. We go way back, starting with our college part time employer, Bruegger's in Kenmore. We both moved to Nashville right after graduation (Dan stayed there a lot longer than me - I tolerated a year, maybe less), and we both lived in Somerville for quite a while several years later. Many a night we sat out on my rickety back porch, sipping beers, staring down at the foreign auto mechanic parking lot located directly below, complaining about the state of our lives. Like me, Dan is a die hard Sox fan. And also like me, he can't say no to the Red Sox.
Yanks just put a run on the board. It's 4-2, no outs. Heilman is throwing a bunch of change ups and I love watching these power hitters take huge swings for strikes. Beautiful. Oh man, Sheffy just went after the ump for a questionable call. No class. At least he got ejected. 4-3, Mets.
The Yankees just spoiled my fun again by squeezing 2 runs out in the 9th. Damn. I was going for symmetry in my mind (our sweep vs yanks getting swept), but it wasn't meant to be. Oh, well.
A Decade of Dan
1995 (aged effect unintentional, but, oddly, it works)
