“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.”

Thought I throw this out there

We are now only 2 runs behind the Royals to keep from being the lowest scoring team in baseball.

It’s not a pretty milestone, but if we can get it, I’ll take it.

And if we score 5 runs before they score 3, we won’t be the last team to 400 runs. Hooray!

(After that, we’re 8 behind Seattle, 14 behind SF and 15 behind Cincitucky)

Oh and Coach Kentera says we are now .500 at home. Hooray!
