Final Weekend
There are two games left in the regular season, and the Red Sox, Yankees, and Indians are still in contention for two playoff spots. The Red Sox beat the Yankees this evening, the first game of the three-game series, and the two teams now have identical records. There are many possibilities for the American League playoffs depending on what happens the rest of the weekend. Thankfully somebody else has calculated all of them.
Down the road at the Oakland Museum, the exhibition Baseball As America has just opened up, and will be running through January 22, 2006. Organized by the National Baseball Hall of Fame, this is the first major exhibition to examine the relationship between baseball and American culture. Sounds like a trip to Oakland is in our future!
- Joe and I are occupied (after the fashion of a small town in Iraq, feels like) this weekend and next and the 22nd, but hey, I bet we can work something out. If your schedules are suited to it, we often have more time on weekdays (except for this coming week) than weekends, and crowds are smaller.— Ron Sullivan 1. October 2005, 07:36 Link
