1) Sherril’ll be okay…heard him postgame and he seemed to have passed catharsis, which is pretty important. That said, he was genuinely as angry as I’ve ever seen him, chucking his glove into the row (only like 5 seats away from me! Holy Cow!)

2) If you ever have a chance to get seats on the field between dugouts you have to do it…that was fantastic, I could literally see the veins in Fahey’s arms.

3) The following players look done in their careers, absolutely done: Melvin Mora, Kevin Millar. Seriously, they looked over aggressive at the wrong times and unable to hit the breaking ball or the fastball. Overmatched.

4) What’s being lost in everything is that the offensive approach after the 8th was basically try to hit a dong. What a terrible way to go about your business. Get on base, let the next guy hit you in.

5) They still look hungover from the Cubs victory and the letdown under the Nats. It really seems like they figured that they had proven who they were and then got caught unawares by these two teams.

6) When they put the tarp on the field, we turned around and went into the concourse, and who do I bump into on my way to get a brew? Why, Jeremy Guthrie, of course. Very cool of him to come out and entertain everyone during the rain delay.

7) They need to change the rules for balks. Dropping the ball is embarrassing and stupid, but it is in no way misleading the runner. In fact, it’s just dropping the ball and being unable to do anything to the runner.

8)FUCK

You might wanna call FlatBrim and let him know. Then call the rest of the team and tell them to be ahead by more than three runs heading into the ninth tomorrow.
