Bizarre, but nice to see it happen to the other guys for a change. Brewers also had some weird plays.

And as I type, Garcia uses his blazing speed to make another run.

baseball gods are on our side this season.

Something happened to my TV. I just saw a Little League game for a 1/2 inning.

Nats pitchers now have a 7 HR lead on Houston for most given up

gods can be very fickle. I think they also consult with the jinx fairies which makes navigating the whole thing challenging.

Now who saw that coming, this past Winter?

Funny how the game of baseball humbles you fast. Only a few minutes ago, we were all joking and laughing lol

In a couple of years, Vivas will belong on the Athletics once move.
