Rain Man’s Monday Picks

Correction: Sorry guys I had Sunday on my title earlier, but I meant Monday, today.

Happy Labor Day everyone!

We won solid two games yesterday and extending our little streak from Saturday to 4-0. The Arizona Diamondbacks had us a little worried going into the top of the 8th down one run, but allowed us to breathe easy by scoring 4 runs that inning which was enough to win the game as the Diamondbacks took it away 4-1. The Detroit Tigers destroyed the Chicago White Sox 18-2 so this was a very easy game to watch.

Damn, I thought we were going to finish 3-1 on Saturday but the Rangers blew it and gave up 4 runs at the top of the 9th which resulted in a loss. By the end of the day it left us with a disappointing 2-2 day. Not the worst I’ve seen, but definitely far from the best. Not much you can do about bad beats, it’s part of the game.
