If we win tonight, we will pick up a game in either the division or in the wild card, as Cleveland and Boston face off.

This is a much needed win to get back towards .500, as the pitching matchups should help awaken our offense.

I think Tim McClelland is really good. He rarely seems to make bad calls, and he's one of a select few who actually seek to cool things down when someone is arguing with them, rather than looking for an argument. He usually wins the "Best Umpire" section of the Player Awards Voting thing they do for Sports Illustrated, too, so the players seem to think he's good as well.
