As I write this it looks like the Cards will be our World Series opponents. Meanwhile, over at Slate, Charles Pierce does some curse-debunking, and calls Babe Ruth a “mental gidget himself”. Don’t ask me why Pierce didn’t capitalise Gidget. Does he not get classic surf movie references?
Rotation is set: Wakefield, Schilling, Pedro, Lowe; and then we go again if necessary. I like it. Pedro gets 6 days’ rest, which he needs. Schilling of course can’t be allowed to hit so he pitches the Fenway games.
