Well, I'm happy to say that we took 2 of 3 from the Royals after losing 2 of 3 to the Angels--that series was not pretty.
My main note from today was a nifty square and throw from Sardinha to nip CoCo Crisp at second. Very nicely done. Our catchers are clamping down on the base-runners. I like that. His light-hittingness even got an RBI today on a sac fly. Rod Allen said Sardinha's nickname was pineapple. It sounded kind of sterotype-ish to me. Let's start calling the Latin players taco.
I was wondering about young Dusty Ryan, so I peeked at his numbers. He's struggling a little at that plate, batting .175 over 40 at bats with the Hens so far. I guess they just want him to get his reps in at the lower-pressured level. Probably not a bad idea.
Right now, the Red Sox are poised to sweep the Yankees, so I hope they don't come into our house will all kinds of pent-up, angry energy that inspires them to kick our tails around.
