In the end, the Red Sox lost 3-1.
As for today, the Cubs took a one run lead in the first inning but the Red Sox answered with two runs in the fourth. The Cubs came back with another run in the eighth to tie the game and force it into extra innings.
In the top of the eleventh inning, with two outs and two men on base, Story hit a bloop that should have been an out but the Cubs pitcher had some kind of seizure and threw the ball so far over the first baseman's head that not only was Story safe at first, it allowed two runs to score, giving the Red Sox a 4-2 lead.
In the bottom of the eleventh, Diekman (who I'm convinced was one of the brothers on Duck Dynasty) managed to hold off the Cubs and win the game 4-2.
Now it's back to Boston to start a fourteen game stretch that is probably the toughest one they'll face this season.
Busy day doing, to be honest with you, nothing much at all. Regardless of why I was busy, I didn't spend a lot of time surfing the interwebs.
The few things I did find are here:
- Oh great. As if covid and monkeypox aren't bad enough...
- Key phrase in this story: "...the driver was taken to the hospital due to numerous bee stings..."
- I've decided that the Russians are dicks.
- First we had to worry about the 'rona. Then we had to worry about monkeypox. Now we have to watch out for rat lungworm.
