Yep, but we are still in First Place.

My only complaint about tonight's game is that if there is going to be a shift on for Gordon, Cabrera and Kipnis better have their wires tight on who is going to go after routine bouncing balls. When it was 2-0 KC, Jimenez should have been out of the inning with 3 outs and no base runners before he surrendered the two run shot to make it 4-0.

12 game losing streaks do end, and it ended in Cleveland for KC tonight.

Of course, Joe DiMaggio ended his 56 game hitting streak in Cleveland, too.

Thanks, Loufla, and we certainly will. I mentioned to my wife your South Carolina academic experience, and your wife's Opera. My wife is looking forward to meeting you both.

As to beer or wine, I often start with beer and then switch to wine depending upon the foods.

I was never a wine drinker until I moved to California as my regular base eleven years ago and then decided I should do the equivalent of "when in Rome, do like the Romans." As a result, I have a solildly California palate.

Maybe we can point you in the direction of some California faves, and maybe you can teach us a thing or two about Italian and European varieties we could possibly enjoy.

I'm really looking forward to once more making South Florida my home. Especially with my wife. She's San Francisco born, and Bay Area bred. She's pretty excited about "change," though she certainly will not be voting for Barack Obama.

Warning, she's an Ann Coulter loving right wing likely soon to be gun toting conservative when she gets to Florida.

She's also petite, delicate, feminine and smart.

If you have any advice on real estate bargains, I'd love to hear. Right now we're keyed in on an area known as "Morton Grove" in Bonita Springs.

Do not know Morton Grove but many places in Bonita are still down in price from a few years ago. Prices there are lower than in Naples, do not know about Ft. Myers. Just a few miles from Bonita towards Ft Myers there is also Estero which is growing prety rapidly.
I have no realtor friends but if you need me to check anything out let me know. Looking forward to meeting you and Best Of Luck!

Game on, and Tomlin does NOT look sharp!
Bases loaded on a double, walk and a single...

DP, as they trade 2 outs for a run...

Now he gives up a double and hits a batter.
First and 2nd, one out...

But he gets out of it with a couple groundouts.

Still 1-0, KC

Conditions worsening at the ballpark, for the weather and the Indians.

4-1, KC bottom of 5th

Seattle kicking Bengal ass again. 3-0 game in the 3rd.

Don't look now, but we have the bases loaded with no outs!

Pronk up. A granny would be sweet...

He fell about 3 feet short.
Sac fly scores one.

Duncan up...

and takes a called strike 3, for the 2nd time in a row!
