[Schloicka]

Interesting game to say the least. But a win is a win. On to Saturday.

Mets tack on a run. Now 7-5 in the bottom of the 9th.

Yankees lose. Sox now up by 5-1/2. Very sweet.

Thank you, Mets!

I went to the movies and saw Denzel at his best so I got home late in the game.  From what I've been hearing it was a scary night with sloppy defense and weak to listless hitting, but while we would have lost this game from 2014-2017 we won it tonight.  We have to hit better the next game or two because you can't expect to stop the Tigers with no runs every time out.  But as George put it, we won and  that is what counts.  The Mets surprised all of us by beating the Yanks so we picked up another game in the standings.  Every little bit helps but let's come back tomorrow with a better game.

BTW, let me know how bad Holt got hurt.  I hate losing that guy; he is a gamer and we play better when he is in the lineup.  Lin does very little for me and why is Nunez still cold with the bat.  He hasn't broken open his hitting prowess yet and we need him to contribute.

If they win tomorrow, Sox will be playing .700 ball in July. Unbelievable.

This is the best part of it.  Glad we held on to win. 

Price is still in my doghouse; he's got about 3 more outings like this to earn his way out of it.
