We're in the Bronze World Series, tied at 1-1 after two games. Our opponent is the Anaheim Angels who went 91-71 over the regular season. They beat the Roidy Roidy Rowsdowners, who must have been using steroids because their version of Pee Wee Reese hit TWENTY NINE HOME RUNS! Talk about over-rating a card. Pee Wee couldn't hit 29 homers in TWO seasons, no offense. He was mainly a defensive player and is over-rated these days because he played for Brooklyn. Rizzuto was appreciated back then, even won the MVP one season. As soon as he started broadcasting though, he became hated by all of baseball except the nice fans with a good sense of humor. He was my favorite announcer when I was a kid. I learned what a canoli was from him.

So anyway the Roidy Roidy Rowsdowners had 110 wins in the regular season! That sucks to not make the Series after that season. And it won't necessarily make it easier on us, as this team has evened us up as we head for three games in their home park.

Paul Dean got mashed in game 2 so if we make it back to that slot in the rotation, it will be Rich Hill or Mike Soroka in place of him.

OK Carrasco threw 7 innings strong in game 1 and struck out 7 in our win. I'm going to go with this rotation:
Game 3: Hyun Jim Ryu
Game 4: Mike Soroka
Game 5: Rich Hill or Carrasco (if Carrasco is rested enough)
If necessary Game 6: Either Hill or Carrasco.
If necessary Game 7: Probably Ryu

FINGERS CROSSED!
