They won the series!

The Red Sox beat the Phillies 9-3 last night, taking two of the three games in their series! Based on the fact that the Phillies are the best team in the NL, this is kind of amazing.

Houck pitched very well. He faced 27 batters over going six innings, giving up three earned runs, zero walks and striking out five. Keller came in in relief and finished up the last three innings. This menas the bullpen will be nice and rested for the Yankees.

Tonight is the start of the Yankees series. First pitch is at 6:30 and Bello is on the mound. I'm really hoping he has his act together because his last few outings have been less than good. He lost his last outing against the White Sox when he face 25 batters over four innings, giving up five runs and walking three.


The SCOTUS has ruled that the federal ban on machine guns cannot be used to ban bump stocks.

If you don't know what a bump stock is, it is a device that you can attach to the shoulder stock of a semi-automatic rifle that makes that rifle fire at a high rate of speed. It effectively makes a semi-automatic weapon a fully-automatice weapon.

I personally can think of no reason to own a bump stock. I have no desire to send hundreds of rounds down range. This is specially true when each round costs about $1.50.

No sir, the only reason I can think of to use a bump stock is when you want to shoot tens or even hundreds of targets over a large area. Since I don't want to shoot numerous targets, I don't need a machine gun.


I'm going to watch the Red Sox hopefully defeat the Yankees.
