Be still, my heart

May 29th, 2008

The M’s won two games in a row. And they won against the Red Sox, who are a great team, although having some issues on the road this season. And they won last night, 1-0, on a solo home run by Betancourt. Anyone who saw this coming should be playing the lottery. Even though they [...]


NYY 13, SEA 2: actually, this is good news

May 23rd, 2008

Sexson to third with two outs, and Wlad strikes out to end the inning. The M’s fucking suck. They’ve loaded the bases a couple times in this scoreless streak, and fail to [...]

Felix pitched 8 innings of shutout ball against Baltimore, and the M’s lost that game. Tonight, Bedard pitches 7 innings of 2-run ball, and the [...]
