How's this for a box score?

	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	R	H	E
NYY	0	0	0	0	0	1	7	7	0	15	16	0
BOS	2	3	2	0	2	0	0	0	0	9	17	1

W: R. Soriano (2-0)
L: A. Aceves (0-1)

I saw a perfect game yesterday against my Mariners. The story of young man who pitched is a classic. Languishing in the minors after Tommy John surgery. Passed around from team to team. Then for one brief moment in time he is in the zone. Amazing to watch.

Baseball - ugh.

I'd rather watch midgets $#@!ing.

Well, baseball is a very intellectual game that requires thinking ahead 2-3 moves. Kinda like chess. Watching midgets $#@!ing is much easier to understand.

Q. What's the definition of "clinging to false hopes?"
A. being a Baltimore Orioles fan - (can't help it i recall like 40 years ago my home town, they actually had a decent team)

Still hate the Yankees, I'm cool with the Red Sox.

It reads as if it's a disaster for the Red Sox giving up a 9 - 0 lead, that it was the Yankees is all the more better...

Gee - no kidding, Socrates.

Too bad other sports don't involve developing strategies.

I never thought someone would throw a perfect game against a team with Ichiro (though he's really lost a step, hasn't he?).

Now had it been against my Padres, that would have been no surprise.

I'm a Padre fan...so yeah, I can relate. Heck, even the Nationals are putting some nice stuff together. Not so much here in San Diego.

This isn't Bobby V's fault, but I think with him as manager this season won't go well for them. Can't say it bothers me too much.
