It's taken a month and almost no one cares, but the New Brew Crew's on a slight upswing thanks to a good outing from Ben "Anybody Washed These?" Sheets last nite. They beat the Rockies to pull up to 4 games below .500 (61-65). Sounds pretty lame, I realize. But because the National League is mired in an era of broadening mediocrity, they're still in the Wildcard chase. Hell, they're only 5 games out of the lead in the Central with over a month to play. I've got only a handful of compatriots in this but...I think we're in the hunt. Prince Fielder is getting notice - a random goofball on Greenwood Avenue this weekend noticed my hat and started in with a riff about how Prince hit a smokin' game-winning RBI and "the boy can hit" (NOTICE: Anyone who sees racism in that remark should just cool your jets and look up Prince's dad, Cecil, and his longball career marks both here and in Japan). Derrick Turnbow even had a less-than-disasterous outing. I'm telling you, America - the New Brew Crew is rising. Praise be to hizzoner or such types.
Maya's claiming we gotta hit the road and run some errands. Hope your own riffs are extended all day. Rock on.
