Half a game.

Only half a game separates the Red Sox from the Orioles and the Orioles haven't been playing too well lately.

The Red Sox beat the Giants last night and they are playing them again tonight. They got a new kid on the mound named Pomeranz. I'm hoping he's at least better than Buchholz and I'd like him to be better than Price because let's face it, Price is in a bad stretch and they can't rely solely on Wright and Porcello.

No flying today which is a shame because the winds were calm and the sky was clear. I probably would have spent two hours just floating around western Mass, enjoying the view.

I'm gonna watch some baseball.
