Oh happy day! The New York Public Libraries will no longer charge overdue book fees. “Ball Four” and “You can’t lose them all,” both “on loan” by Stitches from elementary school, will be back tomorrow.
Can you believe the Rays are gone? The Red Sox sent Tampa home and headed to Houston playing the underdog role once again in the American League Championship Series. Your starter in Game 1, Alex Cora? “It’s Chris Sale … and I don’t expect him to come out in the first inning.” Sale did just that in his only appearance against Tampa.
He allowed five runs in the first inning, but Boston made Sale look better than Jen Psaki does Joe Biden by scoring 14 runs. The Astros’ Framber Valdez was almost as bad in his start against the White Sox, allowing four runs over 4 ¹ / ₃. Houston won that game scoring nine runs. These teams hit. We’ll take the Astros for 20 points in what can be a long night.
Cody Bellinger’s hit in the ninth inning put Los Angeles up 2-1, Max Scherzer closed the door and the Dodgers survived. We cut our bet in half when Julio Urias didn’t start. Down -546 lasordas.
