Gay Marriage Vote Puts Heat On Christie
Baseball is America's pastime, but had our forefathers enjoyed the modern conveniences of clocks, ball pumps, or haste, this pastime may well have been basketball or football. Instead, they had wood, leather, and a rudderless disposition. Baseball is Boring is a series of live blogs for folks who need irony and self-awareness to get through a game.
C.C. Sabathia has established himself as one of the best pitchers in the game, if not the best. It's uncanny how a change of scenery can light a fire under one's figurative ass, a la Manny and C.C. Hell, imagine if Babe Ruth had been traded to a team called "The Beers" or "The Adulterers". He'd still be playing.
Alas, my quest to Baseball is Boring a perfect game continues and the Nationals have the night off. I'm jinxing this on purpose and there hasn't been a single pitch. How do you flash a gang sign in text?
THE ESSENTIALS
The Astros (63-61) start Randy Wolf (8-10, 4.56 ERA).
The Brewers (71-54) start C.C. Sabathia (13-8, 3.04 ERA).
ANALYSIS
The Brewers are a deranged breed. Appearing satisfied, at times even jolly, they often offer to pick up your tab, citing half a night's worth of bonding as "eye opening". Upon closing out their footing has grown as loose as their tongue, sometimes struggling to retain balance. The check being almost three times what they had estimated, their tides quickly turn. Avoiding a fistfight with a total stranger you pay the bartender and quietly accept having a perfect game thrown against you.
PREDICTION
C.C. Sabathia pitches a couple of complete game shutouts en route to a 4-0 victory.
