Missing the game

So this has been a hard week for me, in to a serious accident in the family and in part to what my parents promised to be a fun and relaxing vacation at the Jersey Shore. However how good can a vacation be when you find yourself surrounded by Phillies Fans and none of the local channels show the Mets game. Last night was especially hard, Yankees v Red Sox & Mets v Phillies and me sitting here unable to watch either game.

Apparently in my time away the one the only Billy Wagner returned to the Mets and pitched an amazing inning from what I hear. Then before I had time to digest such a momentous event, I find out that the Red Sox have claimed the Sandman away on waivers. I'd hate to see him go, but it would be great to see one of my favorite pitchers play for a contender (dare I say potential W.S. winner) at least he's not going to the Yankees! Can't wait till Tuesday to see what happens.

As for the the AL East rivals, well the Yanks displayed their power to Fenway's B squad (Francona pulled out the big guns in the 4th inning). Who know what the final score could have been if the A team were up! One thing for sure, 11-20 will not be repeated today, as the boys from bean town are dominating at 12-1 in the 8th.

Kevin Youkilis has shown that he's unstoppable after returning from a 5 game suspension and hitting 2 home runs today for 5 rbis in the game. Big Papi has hit his 20th hr of the season, and proud papa Pedroia is surely setting a good example for his bouncing baby boy Dylan!

~Keep it up guys always I'M PROUD OF YOU!
