That's what bit me in the a$$ during the bracket play with those old codgers. Those boys must love putting us blues through some misery, even if they're very sportsmanlike about it.
If my memory's accurate, that's exactly what we did in Burlington at the Nationals. That is also exactly what we did locally, and it was that "last inning" that ALWAYS bit us in the butt.

I called it the "buffet inning." All you can hit.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
