Two wins kind of night

The Bruins and the Predators were 0-0 through 2 ¾ periods and it looked like they were going to end up in one of those dreaded OT situations. Then, with about six minutes left in the third period, the Bruins put the puck into the net and took a 1-0 lead.

About four minutes later, they put it into the goal again, giving them a 2-0 lead.

Then, with one minute left in the period and the Predators goalie sitting on the bench, Pastrnak flicked a wrister the length of the ice into the empty net, giving the Bruins a 3-0 lead.

It was a good win for them and it moved them into a tie with the Stars for second place in the NHL, one point behind the league-leading Rangers

They are off today while they travel to North Carolina to take on the Hurricanes tomorrow. Puck drops at 7:00.


The Red Sox beat the Athletics 5-4 over eleven innings last night, taking the series and putting them into second place in the ALEast.

Of course, the standings at this point in the season are meaningless. To show you how meaningless they are, the Pittsburgh Pirates are in first place in the MLB.

As for last night, Bello did not have an outstanding game but it wasn't terrible. He made it through five innings, gave up four earned runs, walked one and struck out six. Not a bad outing but two of those earned runs were home runs that came from poorly placed pitches. He was obviously frustrated as he walked off the mound at the end of his outing but hey, he'll figure it out.

Todays game started 3:30 and right now, the Red Sox are up 1-0 in the fifth inning.

Oh, and there are still not a lot of people in the stands in Oakland...


We decided that cooking was not in our plans for the evening and I have to go pick up some dinner.
