The Red Sox are in first (but not by much)
Pokie Reese has been playing unbelievable, its almost like we don't need Nomah.
Marlins are looking real good this year, as well as the Rangers.

Thanks to Hurricanes Frances and Ivan, the Florida Marlins played a home game against the Montreal Expos in Chicago's US Cellular Field. It seemed like a fun game to go to, the Marlins tried to bring as many things from home (video montages, their mascot) and tickets were $15 ($5 towards hurricane relief). Full Story

That is just one of shouse's secret identities. I think he is also Tom Cruse.

BlueJays Cerutti found dead

Cerutti passes away at 44 10/03/2004 6:20 PM ET By Spencer Fordin / MLB.com
TORONTO -- John Cerutti, a local broadcaster and former Blue Jay, passed away on Sunday at the age of 44. He is survived by his wife, Claudia, and three children, Daniel, Nicole and Janine. The left-hander worked for Rogers Sportsnet, and served as the lead analyst on Jays games for the last three seasons. Long before that, he was intimately involved in the community: Cerutti was a first-round draft pick in 1981 and spent six of his seven big-league seasons with the Blue Jays.
Doug Beeforth and Paul Godfrey -- the presidents of Rogers Sportsnet and the Blue Jays, respectively -- issued a joint statement.
"This is a sad day for the Rogers family, as we've lost a distinguished member," it said. "John's sudden and tragic passing is a real blow to all of us. Our thoughts and prayers go out to John's family at this time.
Cerutti, affable and athletic, seemed to be in the prime of his life. He was a scratch golfer and a workout buff, which makes his passing all the more incomprehensible. He was also relentlessly punctual and reliable, which set off alarms at SkyDome on Sunday.
The broadcaster didn't make it to an 11 a.m. production meeting, so his co-workers tried to contact him in his hotel room. They were unsuccessful, which made everyone even more nervous. Eventually, police officers and emergency service workers entered his room and found him without any vital signs. No foul play is suspected, and it's believed he died of natural causes.
Cerutti went 49-43 with a 3.94 ERA in the big leagues, and all but three of his victories came as a Blue Jay. He retired in 1991 and spent some time away from the game before beginning his broadcasting career in 1997. He worked for a few seasons with CBC, then earned a more visible role with Rogers.
Still, most people remember him for his personality. Players loved to talk to him away from the camera, both for his empathy and sense of humor. Fans gravitated to him, and he seemed to have an endless supply of time and patience. His employers appreciated all those qualities and struggled to find words to express their feelings in the immediate aftermath.
"It was an unbelievable shock. It goes to show how unimporant wins and losses are at a time like this," Godfrey said. "We grew to love John not only as a player but as a person. He's going to leave a void."
He grew up in Albany, and I went to school with him. I graduated with his brother, Paul. I am so upset over this. I hope there is no foul-play in this. But, at 44 what can be the cause? Heart? Who knows, this is just awful.

Okay, this is Game 6. End of the top of the 2nd. WHAT THE HEK WAS THAT GUY DOING? He knew that he had no chance. I even knew he was going to screw up the Sox.

This not so great player had bases loaded with one out and shot it just right to second base so that he could screw up the entire team. Second base got out and so did the guy who hit it.

I how that feels. I live in my life by the Sox. My next day depends on how the Sox do. As a resident of the hub, it's a religion to do so.
In case you might not know, my avatar is a bridge in Boston that someone vandalized to say "Reverse the Curse"
This will be Lowe's biggest start of his career.
