To quote Charlie Brown, "Argh!"

To borrow from the thoroughly reprehensible John Sterling, yesterday was Burn, Beckett, Burn. Josh has been the AL version of Jason Marquis: pretty good record most of the season, wretched performance. Guys with ERAs approaching or exceeding 6 shouldn't be listed among the Wins leaders. They make Lee Sinins' argument that Wins are a joke. Why does a pitcher get credit or blame for what his teammates did in the batters' box? Roger Clemens should have gone somewhere that he would have been afforded some run support. How can anyone list his record as 4-4 with a straight face?
Anyway, Beckett got a three year extension? For this season? Wow!
How does one redeem a day marked by a three game losing streak to NYA? Impossible, you say? Nah. Just took my beautiful High School Senior daughter for the Senior pictures. Holy cow, did this happen fast. And she's the baby. Believe me, I was there every minute, but still, how did she grow up so fast? Losing streak? What losing streak?
