The exact opposite World Series matchup I was hoping for is now going to take place…and will do so probably unwatched by me. Tom said it best today:

….That is the memory I will take with me into the off-season this year. Not the memory of Oakland losing three straight, nor the Cubs doing the same, but rather a moment of mid-season, when the game is at its lazy best, game after game, under the azure sky in the spring sunshine.

Goodnight, baseball, I will see you when you wake in February.
