Maria is with me this afternoon and she's going to help me write this one. First, a little news. Ben and I went to see the Brewers and the Twins at the Dome last night with my brother Mike. It was a fine game if you are a Brewers fan, as the True Blue Brew Crew dominated Scott Baker and the Twins 11-3. Geoff Jenkins and Prince Fielder both hit majestic home runs and Claudio Vargas pitched well enough to win. It's pretty clear that Scott Baker is not, at least at the moment, a major league pitcher. He was terrible and the Brewers made him pay for every mistake. Ben didn't like it one bit....
Now, let's turn it over to Maria, my guest blogger.
Rockies Rockies Rockies! And Brewers Brewers Brewers! So much baseball this year. If you were me, Ben, Dad or Mom, you might be extremely extremely tired of baseball baseball baseball. P.S., sorry I keep writing the same words words words in a row row row. -- Maria
Okay, back to reporting, but thanks, Maria! She's right, by the way - there's been a ton of baseball. In fact, Ben just completed another game, losing to the White Sox 14-5 this afternoon at Wilson Park in Shoreview. Our team competed well, but as has been the case most of this season, the other team was simply better. Ben went 0-2 against some of the better pitching we've seen this season, but his teammates did do some good things. They will play again tomorrow at 6 p.m. against the Mariners, this time at Sitzer, I think. The schedule keeps changing and sometimes we end up wandering from park to park, it seems. In any event, this should be interesting, as the expected high temperature for tomorrow is supposed to be something like 475 degrees Fahrenheit; perhaps we are actually roasting a duck instead of playing ball; we'll see.
