I'm just sitting here watching the ball game. It's do or die time for the Cardinals. They just flashed a picture of George and Babs Bush in attendance. They are friends of Roger Clemens, aka the "Rocket Man."
There's nothing like playoff baseball in October. Something always bizarre happens, and it happened last night in the final game of the Angels/White Sox. Kelvim Escobar should have gotten out of the inning on a weak comebacker but forgot to put the ball in his glove, allowing A.J. Pierzynski to reach first. Shades of the Cubbies fan in the NLCS a few moons ago; the White Sox scored 3 runs on the botched play and never looked back.
It was 1959 when the Sox last went to the World Series. I remember some of the players. Early Wynn, Nellie Fox, Luis Aparicio and Minnie Minoso. Their manager, the enigmatic Al Lopez.
Time to get back to George and Babs. Cards still winning 2-1 in the top of the seventh.
Gimme shelter, vc
P.S. Here's a link for all you sci-fi fans. For those who may have missed it the first time.
