Another friend went to the Saturday game and it sounds like it was much slower but we don’t complain about shut outs. And the Mets won today? Now that I’m a fan I’d really like the Jays to win the pennant again!

Thanks, Sarah, I knew you’d come through for me!

Bob is a Mets fan and they are my NL team (he is taking me to Cit Field on my birthday for Keith Hernandez bobblehead day!), so this would have been the perfect series to visit. I’m totally jealous you went to the blowout game, because the Mets were using position players as pitchers, which is always fun to see.

As for the DH, search me. It looks like the Jays had Ben Francisco DH at your game, but they don’t always use him. His stats aren’t terribly impressive this year, but overall in his career he has been better, so perhaps the hope is he’ll improve. Or maybe they thought he would do well against Jon Niese (seems like everyone else did, anyway).

You have the right idea for the intentional walk. Basically it means “you’re a good batter and I’m going to take my chances with the next guy.” I always feel bad for the guy who is on deck, because it means the other team thinks he’s a chump, haha.
