World Series

I’d spread the love to the bottom of the order, too. They were the first batters to put any stress on Wheeler and they got the lineup turned over enough to get the big bats up.

They win a championship last night. I’ll put 2017 WS G5 at #2.

I’ll say that G5 is my favorite game i saw in person though.

Schools closed Monday.

1A and 1B.

2017 was a slug fest of herculean proportions, with two offenses exchanging haymakers.

2022 was edge of your seat nailbiter and a masterclass in bullpen domination.

Agree. And 1B is why I have always loved baseball. Every pitch and every play is suspenseful.

Parade tomorrow. Which is supposed to be hot, humid, and possibly raining. Tuesday is supposed to be a gorgeous 70-degree sunny day, but I guess we can’t wait.

The parade will go right by my office, and I could sit at my desk and watch. But am I really at the parade inside a building?

If you’re still in the mood to add to your WS merchandise collection…

Well, you’re closer than I am in central Tx.
Maybe your office should close for a couple of hours. This is a BFD.

It’s a work from home day, but the office isn’t closed. And it’s not a couple of hours. Street will be blocked off all day. This is a day-long event.

The quilt show folks moved their closing from 4pm today to 2pm so that their vendors, etc could have a chance of getting out of GRB before the parade squatters make downtown impassable.

There are no words to describe how grateful I am not to be sitting here crawling out of my skin waiting for Game 7…

And with Bregman out and supposedly Altuve out as well (hamstring) it would be VERY rough.

No shit. I got up early and today has been the longest day in I can’t remember. And all I had to do was rewatch last night’s game (done). It’s still only a little after 5:00.

I told Jim and Mark earlier that as much as I love hanging out with them, I’ve never been so happy to not see them as I am today.
