September 27-30
Atlantic League playoffs began earlier in the week, on Friday evening I was in York for game #3 of the Freedom Division Championship series (one last ballgame for me in 2019). The first two games of the best-of-five series were in Sugar Land, the Revolution won the opener with the Skeeters victorious in game #2. On this night in York the Revs took a 1-0 lead in the first inning on back-to-back doubles by Telvin Nash and Isaias Tejeda but that would be the only run the home team would score. The Skeeters tied it in the second and posted a five-spot in the third, two more in the fourth gave Sugar Land an 8-1 advantage. A cosmetic run in the eighth brought the final to 9-1 giving the Skeeters a 2-1 lead in the series, on Saturday night (in my absence) they sealed the deal with a 5-4 verdict. Sugar Land meets Long Island (a 3-0 winner over High Point in the Liberty Division series) for the league title. Jenny and I did our usual lunch date on Saturday, the rest of the weekend plus the last day of the month on Monday were relatively quiet. Made another stop at the lawyer on Monday morning, I dropped off some paperwork I had received in the mail. The weather was remarkably cool on Monday, I never used the air conditioner because it wasn't necessary (although temperatures are expected to be summer-like by midweek). Take care, thanks for reading.
