Things I'm happy about today

wish i had been able to watch first 6 innings but was furious when yanks launched those late corn shots -- thank ou tim anderson for the finish ( (watched him play in HSand have been following his ascent. )
ed he also helped my fantasy team since chisox closer on myfantasy team.

fyi, got to dig novel out of one of too many boxes to reread having watch repeat of flick earlier this week in buildup to game.

card fan here, but i really hated to see cub fans screwd with cost-saving housecleanin
I'm reading Shoeless Joe right now. It's missing a lot of the drama/tension from the movie, but it's still enjoyable.

I've read my fair share of baseball non-fiction, maybe I'll start on the novels at some point. Thanks for giving me a starting point.
 
Looks like Fox Sports 1 is showing the game again tonight at 10 pm Eastern, at least here.

I‘m no AL fan, but it looks like it was a pretty good game. Watching if I’m conscious/ coherent. ⚾⚾
zealous NL fan here and will NEVER be fan of the SEC's AL
just hope packing iscomplete before game starts. FS1 is on almost all tv packages

Well, I know the final score, so that screws up any choosing for me.

But I do know that I will eternally hate the Yankees, so by default, I guess I’ll go with the Sox. Even though they’re the wrong Chicago team. But at least they did some sort of throwback uni.

I’m not much of a MLB fan, probably because I never took the time to watch.

My first two were summer babies (end of May and end of August). While waddling around trying to get comfortable, since I didn’t watch soaps or Oprah, I watched the Cubs on WGN, who played only in daytime AS GOD MEANT IT TO BE. @CubsFanTN

And since I’d been to Fenway Park several times while visiting now-former in-laws, I watched the Red Sox when I had to resort to AL games.

And then in SF, when he had access to Da Suite (Hubs’ employer), I followed Los Gigantes, who are five games in front in NL West but do not exist on TV in the East.

Just sort of fell into it.

It's an old soul's game. You've got to appreciate the culture and traditions as much as the game itself. I love baseball so much that it would do my heart well to see someone pick up the game and cheer for one of my heated rivals if it meant they would join the fandom.

I just sort of fell into your last sentence, but my respect for you grew by reading the bold.

I believe you and it hurts my heart, especially since I played softball in school and Church leagues, (I know it’s nowhere the same).

I'm not as big a fan as I was, but I still enjoy it. I used to drive to Atlanta from Kentucky, and to Cincinnati to watch the braves play. Watching Greg Maddox pitch was like watching art to me. I loved Smoltz, Glavine, and Avery also, but Maddox was the man.
