I remember listening to West Coast games on my transistor radio at night in the 60s when I was supposed to be asleep and Ernie really loved pronouncing the name of Angels pitcher “Bo Belinsky.“ It tripped off his tongue like poetry and he enjoyed it.

I was easy on you kids and you behaved pretty well.

Oh no this is shocking.

At least he’s assured of getting run support.

I was called up to the majors for five days but now I’m going back down to the Class D Idaho-Western Montana League where I sit in the stands and heckle opposing players for not wearing their socks high. It’s not much of a life, but it’s mine.

I’m not surprised how this game played out. I’m just surprised that we didn’t lose all three although having Skubal is kind of an ace in the hole. But we also actually figured out how to score runs against a great pitcher and that’s pretty amazing.

When I scroll through Peacock, I can scroll forever and find a little I’m interested in. The only thing I use Peacock for is watching major cycling races. Sometimes they have a movie I saw at the theater and it comes to Peacock first and I’ll watch it again. Why everybody there in the business producing content and if it’s only content it’s still a victory.

God, I hate this ump. Obvious strikes called balls. Loaded no outs.

Sprinklers?

A little bit before my time, but the first person to open the Twin Falls, Idaho Coca-Cola distributorship was one of Cobb’s sons. Twin Falls is famous for being the place where Evel Knievel tried to jump the Snake River Canyon. I didn’t see that either, but I didn’t care to travel from Lafayette, Indiana to see it. I struck up a conversation with a former Idaho state trooper at a Holiday Inn Express once and he was on the policing detail at the Snake River Canyon event, and he said it was the worst day of his life.

The above is an imaginary photo I assembled of a fictitious game that was never played in Detroit featuring Ty Cobb and the Phillies Grover Cleveland Alexander. I assumed we were going to be destroyed by the Phillies and had a really negative whiny crybaby photo already assembled for the third game of the series so I had to change gears and do something positive. You’re welcome. Just so you know what a whiny crybaby I can be I will show you the photo I did assemble. I don’t think I’m alone in being whiny because we do a lot of of that around here.
