Ahhhh such a pleasure to update the board!


















Well that was fun!

I went into last night's game perfectly content with a 7-1 start against the Yankees.
And with the score 3-1 in the 8th I thought "Well, we won the series and Sabathia is on his game."

Folks, that is the definition of a Dodged Bullet Game!

A victory when you were resigned to failure!

I am not putting the Wednesday night game on here even though it was a 1 run win. The Red Sox had a 6-2 lead and basically avoided a teeth grinder. My rules... deal with it.

Let's update the board!

DODGED A BULLET GAMES - 6

April 17 - 10-8 win against Orioles. (Overcame 7-0 deficit.)
