I didn’t watch the A.L.C.S. game seven last night against the Indians. We’re working on getting Giacomo to sleep throught the night and by 8:00 PM I was exhausted. I put on the radio long enough to hear the lineups then staggered off to bed.
This morning I still didn’t know who had won. I rode my bike to work in a happy state of uncertainty. Like anticipating an undefeated season for the Patriots, the odds against don’t undercut the thought of success.
The cat that wasn’t turned out to be Josh Becket in the bullpen:
“He was like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs out there,” [Mike] Timlin said of Beckett. “He didn’t know what to do or when to throw. But he found a way to keep himself occupied.”
