Sure, I was really hoping for a sweep of the Yankees this past weekend. I think 2 straight series sweeps of the Yankees would make up for the 4 game sweep the Yankees pulled on the Sox last year. But hey, 5 out of the first 6 is great news. Thanks Yankee's bullpen!
In other news, I was really looking forward to seeing the Cubs play the Cardinals on ESPN. Its not very often I get to see the Cubs on TV out here. Unfortunately, one of the Cardinals pitchers, Josh Hancock, was tragically killed in a car accident last night, so the game has been postponed. He was only 29 years old, one year younger than me - and he pitched 3 innings in Saturday's Cubs / Cardinals game. He actually made his major league debut with the Red Sox back in 2002 (he retired the first 6 ML batters he faced). Another strange fact - this is the second Cubs / Cardinals game that has been postponed due to a player's death in the past 5 years. Back in 2002, a game at Wrigley was postponed due to the death of Darryl Kile.
