  1. Great win last night. Nerve-wracking finish with another potentially terrible ninth inning. But, nice bouncing back from a tough loss.

  2. Boneheaded base running by TA. Followed by great fielding play by TA.

  3. ===Boneheaded base running by TA===

    Looked like he thought he was out at 2nd and was trotting to the dugout. Very weird.

  4. Fun to watch Reid Detmer throw a no-no last night. Great to see a Springfield-area guy do well in the majors.

  5. Sorry, Detmers, forgot the “s”.

  6. Saw the twin-kill with the heads up play by TA.

    That kind of awareness, you can’t teach, that’s some good baseball (specifically defense) right there.

  7. Steve Stone on Twitter: “I’ll be your ray of sunshine in troubled times”

    We are blessed.

  10. TA’s got some great skills to be sure, sometimes though his base-running smarts seem to be a bit lacking. Shoulda been paying more attention when he got tagged out at third.

  11. Attorney General Candidate Thomas DeVore is advertising on Facebook that he will be a special guest at “An Evening with Scott Kaspar and America’s Mayor Rudy W. Giuliani.” Kaspar is a candidate for IL-6th Congressional. Giuliani is disgraced former attorney, whose license to practice law was suspended.

    Great company for the “wannabe AG of IL” to be keeping.

  12. It appears the Metra BNSF had an accident today that resulted in a passenger death.

  13. When will JB give help the the mothers dealing with the formula crisis. The White House has non answers. Hard to believe he truly cares about women.

  14. === When will JB give help===

    What do you suggest?

    A large part of the shortage is the recall, should Pritzker end the recall?

    Do better.

  15. Rich, it is a good think you went to last night Sox’ game and not this afternoon.
