I'm off to Puerto Rico this afternoon, so won't see any of today's game, just find out the result when I arrive there this evening.
Will post on today's results later, and report on the Puerto Rico trip as the week goes on.
One update to yesterday's note on my son Mark's game: usually it's pretty quiet around Sosa Field, where the game was played, but yesterday there was yet another in the city's series of "neighborhood festivals" in the parking lot there -- read this as "let's sell some beer to people on the street". This was the lamest festival I have ever seen -- there were two really awful bands playing, with a crowd of maybe 20 watching each, and among the stands of people selling things was one with someone selling ripoff versions of name-brand sunglasses. Hello? Isn't this what you bust people for selling on the street, Mayor Richie?
Geez.
