OK folks, whatever the hell is inside of my chest made a strong comeback yesterday, but I think it is permanently on the wane now. Or will burst out like the Alien. At this point, I’d welcome anything that closes this episode one way or another. The B-Mets’ work overtime, and a rare win from …

The Majors may have another day off, but it’s back to business in the minors. Except for Kingsport, they got rained out again – which is the best we can hope for them these days. The Lucies had a twin bill with the Tampa Yankees, and as always, we remind you that these are seven …

Another slow night. Kingsport and the Lucies were both rained out, and Brooklyn’s bats seemed to be water-logged.
