Well, Mick, I'm sorry it was at your expense, but that was a pretty nice series for the Sox. 3 out of 4 (thanks to a right fielder who was willing to stick the landing on a great catch) and a 9.5 game lead in the AL East BR (before Roger). I'll be pulling for the Tigers to make that ground back up against the Cards. They look pretty terrible right now, so you should whup 'em.

Since the Sox got rained out tonight, here's an interesting factoid. Joe Sewell played shortstop, mainly for the Indians, for 14 seasons. He struck out only 113 times in his career. He holds the record for most consecutive games without striking out (115 in 1929) and for fewest strikeouts in a season (4, in 1925 and again in 1929).

I spent about 15 minutes looking online, but couldn't who had the fewest strikeouts last year. I'm pretty sure it was more than 4, though.
