After Friday night’s shutout, I had mentally given up on the season. I have to say, I wasn’t interested in this game. I mean I cared somewhat, it’s not like I’m shutting off completely, but I was disinterested in watching the game.
Right around 7:10 or so, I fired up the MLB AtBat app on my iPod Touch to see who was starting the game, and discovered the game was already in the fourth inning. At that point, we were winning 1-0, and I have to say I was surprised at the fourth inning. I watched a little on the iPod Touch app, and then passed out on my bed, as I had been up since 5:30 when woken up by the baby.
When I woke up, I went and played some “The Bigs 2” on my Xbox 360, and wasn’t even interested in watching the game, to be honest. Was having fun with Home Run pinball in Times Square. :)
When I checked back in on the Rangers game, it was over, and we had won. Which is good, I suppose, but it really REALLY feels like “too late, guys”.
We did score three runs, which is a major uprising, given last week’s offense. However, it still isn’t a major offensive production, three isn’t terribly great. Good thing Feldman was there to win (his 17th), otherwise we would have lost yet again.
Speaking of Feldman, he has an outside shot at winning 20 games this year. By my count, he can get three more starts this season, the third coming on the actual last game of the year. It would be quite an accomplishment for him to do that, it’s been quite awhile since we’ve had a 20 game winner.
