“11 BUCHHOLZ P 1.000”

Clay Buchholz batting 1,000 on the season. Sadly, while running the bases he strained his knee and had to sit out the rest of the game.

The final strike of the season

The final strike of the season

SF beat LA 3-1.

Joy & I had been a wee bit disappointed not to see Nomar Garciaparra or Manny Ramirez play, but understandably they're resting before the postseason. It wasn't until the 9th inning that we discovered that Nomar was actually making his managing debut at the game -- apparently a tradition of Joe Torré's.

AT&T Park

Ever since I first saw the Red Sox on TV playing at "SBC Park" (as then was), I've thought the Giants' park was gorgeous. This afternoon, Joy & I went to see their season closer against LA, and it was as lovely as I'd hoped.

Large, but intimate, and right next to the Pacific, I dream of the day the Red Sox ditch Fenway and build something as special as AT&T Park.
