Baseball

Something I think everyone should know about me is that I love baseball. My team is, without a doubt, the San Francisco Giants - a team I've followed since I was a child and went to one of their games. This winter was probably the most exciting time I've ever experienced - we won the World Series for the first time in over 50 years! And all this last weekend we have been soundly kicking the Dodgers' asses. Unfortunately, the infield pretty much choked opening night and we ended up losing 2-1. Thank goodness this is a four game series or my pride would be irreparably damaged. I can't bring myself to watch tonight's game, but the one inning I did sit through, I was thoroughly unimpressed with both our veteran and our rookie Sandoval and Belt, respectively. Belt blew the final inning last night by swinging on what would have been his fourth ball, thereby giving him a walk and an opportunity for a better hitter to take the plate. And don't even get me started on Sandoval - the idiot missed almost every ball thrown to him on 3rd, including the one he made Posey throw to him, despite Posey clearly seeing that the runner was too close to the plate (he then proceeded to fumble the ball, allowing the runner to get to home base...not cool).

Anyways, now that I've gotten all my frustrations off my chest, I guess all I can do is wish y'all a happy Friday (Friday, gonna get down on Friday...sorry) and a wonderfully sunny weekend.

Kisses,

Aly

P.S. LOVING this 90 degree weather - keep it coming Mother Nature!
