Top half looks fine. Those are five of the best teams in baseball. Beyond that, the Indians are a division leader with a .500 road record and just won four of five games. The A’s have 67 wins.

Great story. Compelling, and rich.
This Phils team are hard to relate to with all the foreign players who don’t speak English. Reason why they aren’t drawing well at the gate. Sport is like hockey anymore.
You should hear the shit he wants to say.
Black Jeff is right on the money for once on his post above. I tried to watch the all star game and most of the players could not speak English. Makes me sick. Steng
