... league record, eclipsing the 10 straight games Boston dropped to the As from 1988-2003. Suck that, Dave Stewart! Torii Hunter may have gone 2-5 with a pair of ribbies, but he also nearly tore knee ligaments hopping up and down protesting an out call at first base, and he badly misplayed a routine fly ball by Mark Kotsay in the 6th, his first error since August of 2007 Chone Figgins’...

Philadelphia Philies 3, Milwaukee Brewers 1. Phillies lead series 1-0. The last time the Philadelphia Phillies won a playoff game was the day after my son Gaston was born. The 1993 World Series was dramatic for a lot of reasons: Cito Gaston (name coincidence), the Phillies being wild as hell on all fronts, the amazing run producing Rickey Henderson, Dave Stewart’s stare, the city getting...
