To paraphrase a popular radio hit song by Katy Perry —

You change your mind like a girl changes clothes –You PMS like a witch I should know —Your hot and your cold … your YES and your NO … etc. 

Or in poker terms chop it on up –

Two games in one day and two entirely different results.

Bartolo Colon looked pretty good throughout the game.  He managed six strike outs and looked pretty confident. One unearned run in seven innings was really great.   Paulie managed to get things started in the fourth with a double that brought in two runs.  Bobby Jenks had me pretty darn nervous in the ninth , but managed to pull it off despite a few Mariners on base.  It was good to see Griffey Jr. out there in the Mariners uniform .

Johnny Danks … what was up with that tonight? Five runs on eight hits in four innings … gross !!! However, I guess everyone is entitled to have a bad night and I guess it was your night.  It really didn’t help that the bats were pretty cold . Paulie managed to bring in the only run for the evening while the Mariners kept firing away. Ohhh and that Hernandez kid. He looked pretty great .  He appeared to be on cruise control until he was taken out .

It is early in the season and about .500 ball isn’t too awful just yet.  There seems to be some inconsistencies going on and hopefully those can be ironed out.  I am glad to see BA doing well with his plus .300 batting average. I am also happy to see Paulie producing.  

I will attend my first Sox game in late May.   I am really excited about it !! I am going with my bff Diamond Darling and some of her family.  I attended a Cardinal game a few weeks ago with seats in the Bank of America area.  It was awesome and I highly suggest a trip to St. Louis to catch a Cards game … however… they aren’t my boys and I have to “adopt” them from time to time.  I really do enjoy the game of baseball so I guess it is all good.  For now I depend on technology and t.v. to get my fix.  Although a day like today frustrated me… I am soo glad to deal with the HOT and coooooold that my boys are throwing down now.
