The MLB regular season has started. Tigers had their first game Thursday and their second game today, against the White Sox. Tigers won both games. They did very well in Spring Training, finishing second in the Grapefruit League. I hope they do that well in the regular season.
Yesterday was bright and sunny, today is gloomy and overcast.
Though I didn’t get to bed until 7:30 AM last night, I got up before noon today and I’m highly motivated. Rushing around the house, getting shit done.
Astros just got their asses kicked again. Verlander will not be in the World Series.
I’m rooting for the Phillies now. NLCS is tied. Game 7 will be tomorrow.
Advertisement really works, dudes. I kept seeing these Arby’s cheesesteak sandwiches while watching the games and I had to try one tonight. Had a DoorDasher bring one over. Damn good sandwich, and just right for watching the ALCS Game 6.
Astros just lost. The ALCS is tied now and one more game to go. Pulling for the Astros.
PS, today was not a good day to be a Lion.
That was Miggy’s last game. I’m a bit emotional about this.
Wish I had someone to play catch with right now.
The Tigers finished their season in 2nd place.
Reds just beat Dodgers. Earlier, Mets lost to Astros. There’s more baseball games on, but I gotta turn the TV off and get back to work. As much as I want to watch all these games, I need to limit it to just my top teams, namely the Detroit Tigers for MLB, and the other Detroit teams for the other sports, as well as the Michigan Wolverines.
In Baseball, there are teams I love, teams I like, teams I don’t like and teams I hate. Someday, I oughta list out which teams are under which category.
Probably going to turn the Red Wings on at 7. Might or might not actually sit in front of the TV and watch the game.
I’m hungry. Going to make hamburgers. Hope I don’t burn them like I did last time. By the way, production has been moving steadily. Getting work into novels and short stories every day.
And now got the Reds and Dodgers. Damn it, I’m not going to get anything done today.
My feelings about the Reds and Dodgers are pretty even and I like both teams equally.
Heaven returns to Earth. I just turned on the TV and my heart thudded when I saw there is a live Spring Training game on right now. First game I’ve caught this year. Astros and Mets.
Didn’t Justin Verlander just tranfer from the Astros to the Mets? If that is correct, I’ll be favoring the Mets over the Astros this year.
In any case, baseball is here again and all is right in the world. I’m stopping production to watch the remainder of this game.
Go Mets!
The Houston Astros just won the World Series. I wonder if this is it for Justin Verlander’s career as a player. He’s reminding me of Kevin Costner’s character, Billy Chapel, in the movie “For the Love of the Game”. The other night when Verlander pitched to his former teammate, Nick Castellanos, it was like the scene from the movie, when Billy Chapel is pitching to his former teammate and he’s thinking, “When did we get so old?”
Also saw Michigan beat Rutgers 52-17. The Wolverines are now 9-0 for the season.
I meant to post earlier, but got distracted. Tigers beat the Royals again, 10-3. This makes the winning streak six.
They play the Twins tomorrow. Six more games left.
