Rain, rain, go away!

Ok, everyone, start praying for a break in the weather.  In about an hour, Nolan and I will begin heading down the Thruway for tonight's game at Yankee Stadium.   However, I have the sneaking suspicion we're just going to wind up turning around and coming back home.

 

The forecast for the Bronx right now, much like the Capital Region, is calling for rain, rain and…um…oh yeah, more rain.   We're packing our rain gear just in case the game is on.

 

Last night's game was rained out.  That's means that if they do play tonight we'll be seeing Curt Schilling go against Jaret Wright.   If they had played last night, then tonight would have been Tim Wakefield vs. Randy Johnson.

 

As much as I'd like to see Schilling pitch in person (hopefully getting a loss), I think the Wakefield-Johnson match-up would have been more interesting.

Well, they played. And as happy as I am that the Sox finally beat the Yanks in this series, I feel bad that Nolan had to see a losing game. Eh, can't win 'em all right?

Did you see Jerry Springer? He was in the stands.

AS a non-baseball regular... I find it curious that they put the games up by using the pitchers of each team... it's like a boxing match. It's so and so vs so and so, but really, either picture could get pulled at anytime. Maybe what they should do, is have the starting pictures play something like a fastball-dodge ball game. Then it'd really be the two pitchers going after each other.
