I haven’t caught much of the playoffs, just bits here and there. I watched most of games 3 and 4 of the Bulls sweep of the Heat. The Heat are a terrible team, by the way. Tonight, I watched my...
Julian Tavarez went five innings, gave up three earned runs and earned the win against the Yanks today, 7–4 was the final. Tomorrow is an off day, and it couldn’t come at a better time for the Yanks pen, or...
Julian Tavarez (0–2, 8.36) vs. Chien-Ming Wang (0–1, 5.68) The third and final game of the second Yanks/Sox series of the year features a gross mismatch. Chien-Ming Wang was the runner-up for the Cy Young last year, Julian Tavarez...
