MISCELLANEA
-- We have a three-game lead in the loss column! After tonight, the Angels and A's will both have ten games left, 40% of which are against each other. Even if the worst happens and our five-game win streak comes to a close this evening, we'll still be in great shape heading into the final stretch.
We don't even need to play particularly well against the A's to make it. Even if we lost tonight and go 2-2 against the A's, they'd have to go 4-2 to our 2-4 over the other six games in order to tie us. Obviously, a lot of things can happen, and it ain't close to over. But the Lads are in the driver's seat, and this is ours to win.
-- Last night was a great come-from-behind win, as you know. Yes the Texas bullpen is lousy, but a good team is supposed to come back and beat them, and that we did. The Angels can't lose focus tonight; a sweep of the Lone Stars would be huge. Every game from here on out is big, and the Angels have the advantage on paper for a number of them. They have to play like it.
-- I've been horribly remiss about two things. One is my nascent Movie Review Blog (see sidebar to the right). It's partially because it's been a somewhat dead time for moviegoing over the last six weeks, as the Industry lays in wait between Summer and Oscar Season. Well, last night's season premiere of Lost, and the fact that I just re-watched all of Season One on DVD over the past two weeks, has inspired me to write a review of ... Lost. What, it's not a movie? Hey, it's a moving image, I'm writing about it.
The other are the seasonal counters to the right, which I haven't updated in weeks. I'll try to reconstruct them, but I might have to erase them if I can't. Oh, well, they were fun (for me, anyway), while they lasted ...
