Double Dinger Night

I have the first of my L.A. ballpark tour photos up: a slideshow of Jason Schmidt’s delivery. I’ll post more photos later this weekend.

Meanwhile, I cannot possibly imagine what it must be like to be a Texas Rangers fan. The ending of Friday night’s game was just insane. But the A’s and Rangers always play games like that in Arlington: if I had to endure 11-10 ballgames consistently, I’d either go bananas, or I’d have to transmogrify into a Monte Moore Monster, learning to love the high scores, and ringing my dingers:

The bells are ringing and
everyone’s walking with arms extended in a trance
Forgetting their washing
neglecting their children
they’re dropping all businesses at hand

TMBG

What a disaster that would be. Yes, a win is a win, and the A’s are now just 1.5 games out of the wild card lead, and I should be quite satisfied with that, but…

Please, we need more 3-2 games: for our children’s sake.
