ALCS Game 2

First off: Blessings to the Lidle family for their loss. Sobering. He just pitched on Saturday. Truly sad and bizarre news.



Second off: We spotted Nate's full mouth
(See Gum Time) in the fourth at which time I proceeded to empty an entire packet of Big League Chew into my mouth. It was grotesque. It took FOREVER for the gum to remotely resemble...well, gum. Syrup was roping off of my bottom lip. "Gum Time" was gag time...and then...something beautiful happened...Polanco singles, Mags singles, Pudge walks, Monroe singles, Gomez singles, Inge sac flies and I'm on my knees with my arms uplifted, praising the gum gods for their sticky, pink blessings.



Third off: In Jim We Trust. If he says, "Gomez" I say, "How High"



It is becoming more clear that Rodney is getting his primo stuff back, which may be an even bigger deal if Zoom is really having wrist trouble.
