PrintIt looks like Edwin Jackson will soon be pitching for the American League. Will Brandon Inge be joining him on the field?
National League and American League tied 3-3 going into the bottom of the fifth.

It’s sung on Sundays or during day games only in months with an R in them or something like that. I heard the whole set of regs last week, but I obviously don’t remember them.

It was an okay catch...nothing great.
But that’s what happens when 70% of the baseball fans in the world root for NY/Bos and when they can’t homer vote, they division vote.
Well. Okay.
That was a pretty nifty catch. But one catch can’t compare to a triple that set up the go-ahead score.
