It’s that time of year. I drove past Turner Field while the Rays were battling the Red Sox. I drove past the home of the Cincinnati Reds the next morning. Then yesterday we arrived in Tiger country. Luckily the Tigers had the day off and the Rays were on MLB. Rays win! Two in a row. Oh happy day! Sue me I’m excited after watching them tank for a month.
Anyway I’m going to be a bit out of touch with the Rays for a couple of weeks. I’ll try to pop in from time to time, but my hands might be sticky from the s’mores. I could probably update you on the Tigers while I’m here, but that would be whacked. Besides there’s a great site where you can do just that. Just don’t stay too long because her place is way cool and you won’t want to come back around these parts.
Also I’ve been meaning to give a shout out to the Baseball Wives blog. It’s a great place to go and remember that these guys aren’t just baseball players, they’re sons, and fathers, and husbands, and they have wives that keep it all together. Nichole Johnson is the heart and soul of the blog, but many wives have contributed stories. Her husband Elliot just made the all-star team. I have some pictures of him at spring training. Make sure you check their site.
Go Rays, keep up those winning ways!
