billroperThis afternoon, I finished (almost) getting the taxes ready to go to the accountant. I still need one number from my financial advisor to make sure that the return for my Dad's trust has everything needed, but I dropped off an email today and should be able to get that in the morning.
Then I played the next-to-last batch of games for the computer division in my APBA baseball league. I have an eight game lead in the division with thirteen games left to play. This makes me think my chances are good, but with a magic number of six, things can still go wrong. Shohei Ohtani leads the team with 46 home runs. No one else on the team has more than 30. :) And he has a 14-5 record as a starting pitcher. One starts to understand how he won the MVP in 2021.
We finished up the evening watching the end of the Cuba vs. USA game, which was a good thing if you were a USA (and Cardinals fan), as Wainwright and Mikolas only gave up a run each while each pitching four innings. And although Arenado left the game after getting hit with a pitch, the X-rays were negative, so that's a *very* good thing.
