When I went to bed in the middle of the fifth inning, the Red Sox were up 1-0. Whitlock had pitched a decent four innings and was coming out for the fifth.
Weissert came in and gave up two runs, giving the Angels a 2-1 lead. As it turns out, that was how the game ended four innings later.
Red Sox pitching was good but the Angels won because their pitching was better and the Red Sox batters just couldn't hit the ball. They had only three hits in the entire game which is nowhere near enough hits to move runners home.
As for todays game, it started at 4:00 and it is currently in the 5th inning. The score is 3-0 in favor of the Red Sox
Houck is on the mound and he's doing okay.
The one thing I want to point out is that the guy from Worcester they brought up to replace Story, Hamilton, went and hit a home run in the third inning.
Next game is Tuesday in Boston where they welcome the Orioles into Fenway Park for the home opener.
Also, today's game marks the start of games being played at a reasonable hour up until the All Star break. Every game between now and then will start before 8:10 at night and that means I should be able to stay awake to watch all of them.
Turns out I didn't have to be concerned about the Bruins going into overtime last night because two minutes into the sudden-death overtime period, the Bruins put one into the Panthers net and won the game 3-2.
With four games left in their regular season, they are five points ahead of the Panthers in the Atlantic division, one point behind the Rangers in the NHL and have secured a playoff spot. Now it's just battle for seeding and home ice advantage.
Next game is this Tuesday against the Hurricanes. Puck drops at 7:00.
No, I didn't buy a ticket to the $1,360,000,000 Powerball lottery and that means I did not win the $1,360,000,000 Powerball lottery.
Then again, I'm pretty sure my chances of winning the lottery are the same whether I buy a ticket or not.
Unless you are living in a cabin in the woods with no internet, television, radio or electricity, I'm pretty sure you are aware of the fact that tomorrow, starting around 2:15 in the afternoon, the moon will pass in front of the sun and those of us in Western Mass will enjoy what is known as a 93% totality eclipse.
Don't stare at it. If you don't have the proper eye protection or some welding glass, use a hand mirror to reflect the sun onto the side of building or something like that.
No matter what you do, enjoy the event and don't go sacrificing any virgins or anything like that.
