Really hope your son is doing okay! Buch was fine, he had a faster pace in the earlier innings. Julio making a statement. JBJ looking like a veteran.

Good points! Just drives me a little nuts in a pet-peevish way.

LMAO!! Not a good look for anyone.

Also watching Guardians at Jays. Nick Swisher is a gigantic douche.

No only once in the 5th. He popped out w/ bases loaded. Otherwise he had a bunt single, 2 infield singles with one RBI. Not too shabby. Edit: They had too many men LOB. A trend from the past few seasons that will hopefully not continue.

He's from Prince George VA about an hour south of me. Not surprised he and his family chose Applebee's. Thanks for the laugh. I hate Applebee's!

Nice way to start the season! ALWAYS nice to beat the NYY!

Thanks Robbie!

Yeah, I don't get that at all.

I've got butterflies! WIN!!!
