By the way, is Dingler’s absolutely awesome helmet worn only on special occasions? Of course, I guess if he wore it every day that would destroy the dignity of the game, unlike gambling.
One of my old buds from Detroit that I met in Tucson ended up moving down to Clearwater, Florida. And he likes Tropicana Field and is forgiving of all its deficits because the heat and humidity is insufferable and it’s comfortable inside. He also says he’s never had a problem getting a ticket.
So aside from the fact that it’s raining right now according to both of my weather apps, it looks like after ceasing for a while it then will then rain again around game time which is disheartening. But it would also be disheartening to have an indoor stadium reminiscent of the expansive catacombs out of one of Ridley Scott’s Alien movies.
Every club in the AL Central that played today won and every team in the AL West that played today lost. I’m not sure how often that happens, but I noticed it and thought it odd.
I missed almost all the excitement because one of my best friends called to commiserate with me about having Covid once again, expressing his concern and celebrating the fact that I’m not dead yet. Glad it happened though. The run scoring that is not the dead part.
When the ball is hit to centerfield and Javy out there, I always feel confident. Perhaps I shouldn’t but I basically do. And he seems so nonchalant about it without being a jerk.
So I’m here. Just tested positive for Covid for the fourth or is it the fifth time? I honestly thought it was just a cold or the flu this time but yep, I’ve got it again. Jack don’t you dare blow this first inning. Get out of it for me do it for the kids.
Jeez Flaherty has lost 12 games? I suppose that giving up runs early and the Tigers not scoring when he’s pitching is a part of that but still that’s a lot of losses.
