I didn’t end up going to the Sox game; the plan was to get tickets at the stadium, but they were sold out before we even got around to going. Maybe later, in a non-Twins series. It’s nice how the big change in manager has made no difference so far in their choke jobs to the Twins.
Giants winning pulled everyone a little closer. I watched the last inning of last night’s SDP vs SFG on Gameday. Giants obviously need to make a relief move, if they’re going to make three run leads in the ninth inning so dramatic. Maybe Herges will take something from getting out of a bases loaded, no one out situation, and not from being partially responsible for getting into that situation.
Pittsburgh is out of last for the first time in a long time (Brewer, and could move up two more spots today if they win and Houston and Cincinnati both lose. If you look at the winning percentages now, the Central’s a group of near .500 teams and the West has some excellent ones, a reverse of what was going on earlier this season.
Today’s game is Wood vs Chris Capuano (who beat the Cubs last trip in) on FSN. A win today will move the Cubs into a tie for second and keep them 1 game out.
