A nice win

The Red Sox managed to hang on and win last night, beating the Blue Jays 4-1.

Giolito had a good but not great outing, facing 23 batters 4⅔ innings, giving up 1 hit, 1 run, 4 walks and striking out 3. Not his usual high-quality start but it put them in a good spot for the bullpen to take over and finish things off.

It was the hitter who made the difference. There were still a lot of outs made on warning track but there were a lot of singles and doubles that resulted in runners being moved along the bases and on to home plate.

Tonight's game starts at 7:07 and Crochet has the start.

For the record, I only made it through 6 innings last night. I'm hoping to make it through at least 7 tonight.

This head cold thing is killing me...


After the huuuuuge announcement from Brainworm Bobby and The Very Stable Genius yesterday, this made me laugh:


Speaking of autism...

Look, I get it. For the last 50 years, autism rates have been increasing and it seems like the medical community is doing nothing about it. The only time you hear anyone in the medical establishment say anything at all about autism is when they come out and say, "Vaccines don't cause autism! That rumor is from a debunked report issued by some guy a long time ago!"

Okay, so what does cause autism? What can you tell me about the causes of autism and why it is on the rise? And please don't say, "It's not on the rise. Diagnostics have gotten better so we're discovering more of it!" That's nice but what is causing it?

Maybe if the gigantic medical bureaucracy in this country had come out and said, "You know what? We should probably look into what is causing it." maybe we wouldn't have nutcases like Kennedy running around poking us with sharp sticks. Maybe we would know what actually causes autism and we could take appropriate measures instead of the knee-jerk reactions we are seeing from our esteemed leader, The Very Stable Genius...
