The Really Important News
Let us not forget the vital news of the day: The Mets lost! The Mets lost!
As a Yankee fan, I am sorry for Willie Randolph, who has done a great job. But I just couldn't hack much more non-stop Mets coverage...and in a completely immature and indefensible way, I take great pleasure in seeing Mets fans have their hopes savagely crushed.
To lose a game by looking at strike three in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded, two outs, down by two.... That's gotta hurt.
Anyway, it was a terrific game for baseball fans: A pitching duel, some great defense, timely hitting, drama right down to the last pitch.
And next: Go Detroit!
