    Mets

    Obviously I’m pretty happy with the Mets winning four of five against the Braves. Braves struck out 19 times yesterday, I guess that’s how home run hitting teams go, boom or bust.

    Trout and Ohtani sell tickets by the roll, but the Angels will always find a way to lose.

    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

    My wife and I always go to at least one game in Seattle every year. She loved Trout so we've seen the Angels several times.

    This year we're going to see the Braves play in September. They've been my team ever since I was in grade school, when cable TV had 10 channels and one was TBS, which at that time was owned by Ted Turner, who also owned the Braves, and so TBS showed all their games. My mom and I became huge Braves fans at that time and still are.

    I saw Atlanta play in Seattle in 2003. Greg Maddux pitched against Gi Meche that day. That was a 3 game series in which Seattle scored a total of 5 runs in 3 games and won two out of three. Atlanta also scored a total of 5 runs in the series. That was some good pitching that weekend!
