Hey, it could happen...

Summer is well nigh over, today's weather notwithstanding. I've managed to not talk about baseball here since about May, for all the good it has done. At least I can rest easy knowing I didn't jinx us. I'm feeling a lot better about things after this past weekend. Our disastrous last 5 game series against the Yanks and our subsequent slide into oblivion put me into a funk that I am just now climbing out of. Taking 3 out of 4 from them in a two day double-header marathon helped immensely. Chatting with the Yankees fans at work, I said "So if we win every single game we play for the next two weeks, and the Yankees lose every single game they play, we've still got a shot at the post season..."

At the very least, I'll have something to look forward to for next April.
