OK, he hasn’t pitched all that well. But, here we are again, in the fifteenth game of the season, with a home start against the Texas Rangers.
I grew up in a town with a Rangers farm club, back when the Rangers were downright terrible. No one was a Rangers fan in my elementary school; they gravitated to the Royals (and George Brett) or the Cardinals (and Ozzie Smith). We called them the “Strangers.”
Anyway, another M’s game tonight. They’re 6-8 now and playing better than last year.
That was a pretty dull game last night, and dragged on. I left in the 5th, score 4-1, and they lost 7-4.
