Mini-Fest in the Mallon Mancave!!!!

Big thanks to Scott for having Steve W. and I over for some games this rainy afternoon!  Scott was a most gracious host, providing a wide array of snacks and beverages (although he was quite stingy with allowing any wins against Minnesota!).   His basement is the perfect den for Strat-O, the curved widescreen display of the game, complete with booming surround sound, was absolutely amazing!!!




But wait, there is more!  Scott's basement is like the coolest sports bar in town.  Every corner  had some new and cool memorabilia, highlighted by the world's only remaining Joey Harrington plaque in a most appropriate location.  Some intense Bubble Hockey games broke out, as illustrated below...



Maine came into the day on an extended losing streak and ran it up to 17 or 18 in a row before they topped the Butchers.  Stat of the season so far for Maine?  Here is the combined line for Michael Pineda, Angel Miranda, Carlos Rodon, Jose Quintana, and A-A-Ron Sanchez...

0 wins, 22 losses, 215 innings, 165 earned runs, 6.91 ERA

Ugh, that is a LOT of innings to not even rack up a single win!  The Division battles are pretty much decided already, but the Battle For the Bingo Balls seems to be intensifying.
