I have a few things to look forward to this summer, now that school is over. Besides our "vacation" to my brother's house, I have the honor of attending the Face To Face farewell concert in Irving Plaza. It's Sunday, August 22nd, and I am psyched because I never got the chance to see them live, and was really bummed when they called it quits last year, but they're getting together to do a final run. Should be sweet. Don't know who they're playing with, but I don't care.

After getting home from work today, I watched the Blue Jays game on ESPN...unfortunately. They were down 1-0 in the 3rd when I got home, and proceeded to tie the game and take the lead 2-1 in the 5th I think. The Royals tied it at 2, but the Jays took the lead back in the 7th. Kerry Ligtenberg came in for the 8th and left with 2 outs and runners on the corners. Terry Adams, their supposed closer of the moment, came in to get the 3rd out in the 8th. The Jays couldn't do anything in the 8th as Delgado struck out with bases loaded, and then faltered in the 9th again. Adams came back in to close out the game, but didn't have good control. He fell behind 3-1 to Desi Relaford, who's batting .210 this year, and then surrendered a single to him. Aaron Guiel grounded to first, and Relaford moved to 2nd. Angel Berroa grounded to second and Relaford moved to 3rd with 2 outs. Adams then walked Beltran to put runners on the corners and Mike Sweeney lined a ball past Eric Hinske to score both runs and win the game. I watched the game for 3 hours and they lost like that! It sucked. The game must have been 4 hours long because first pitch was 2 pm. Anyway, I was pissed and threw my name tag from work across the room, but soon got over it since I had a feeling Adams didn't have closer stuff...
