Well, that sucked.

The Bruins lost 6-2 and the Red Sox lost 5-1. The talking heads on the morning news tell me the Celtics also lost but I don't remember what the score was.

No wins for Boston yesterday.


The Bruins are now down 2-1 in their series and things don't look good for them. Marchand took a major hit at the end of the first period, played through the second period but left the game at the start of the third period and did not return. The Bruins say he has "an upper body injury" which can translate as anything from a bruised rib to a concussion.

But a lack of Marchand wasn't the only problem. They just flat out played a bad game and I'm going to say it looks like the Panthers want to win more than the Bruins do.

Next game is tomorrow. Puck drops at 6:30. Hopefully someone lights a fire under them and they come out ready to win because without that desire, there will be no wins.


As for the Red Sox, what can I say. They are once again ending innings with runners left on base. They left 11 runners left on base and several of those runners were on third base. They just can't seem to get a the guy on third to touch home plate.

Fortunately, they made up for it today when they beat the Nationals 4-2 by actually moving base runners along and touching home plate.

The final game in the series is tomorrow. First pitch is at 1:35.


Since The Vet is much younger than I am and she is capable of staying awake like most normal adults, she was able to take a picture of the aurora last night.

She says she took that picture in her front yard looking east-ish at about 10:30 last night.


I'm going to finish watching this ball game.
