    I was at today’s game. It was my third game this year and I went 3-0 (all Maclean starts). I also went 3-0 last year and the year before plus the last game I went to in 2023. I have, therefore, a 10 game winning streak.

    I met him and had a pleasant conversation with him. He had written a memoir and found himself outside of my office. He hung around with me and several others for a bit. It was a long time ago and I can’t recall anything in particular but that he was very nice.

    Fourth of July at Dodger Stadium also appealing to me. I go to Cleveland in a couple of weeks for this year's new home-team rival.

    I was working at a law firm in San Francisco in the early ‘80’s. I remember a young woman who worked there was having an affair with Phil Garner and how she was excited the Pirates were coming to SF. They would go off on his motorcycle.

    The first professional baseball game I attended was played on August 16, 1964 in Shea Stadium's first season. Galen Cisco (not a Hall of Famer), in a season he went 6-19, pitched a complete game as the Mets win 12-4. Leadoff hitter Bobby Klaus (also not a Hall-of-Famer) who had a career .200 average got four hits. The only Hall-of-Famer to play in that game was Dick Allen (back when he was known as Richie Allen). He hit his 20th homer of that season in the 4th inning. That game made me a Mets fan.

    I was at that game that Marshmallow attended. My first time in Detroit. Not totally surrounded by Met fans but there were some - have to say that the Tiger fans were really nice people as well.

    Pretty much totally agree. I saw it before Rob Reiner’s death so there wasn’t that queasiness. A few of the “what they’ve been up to inbetween” bits worked but overall nothing special. Also agree re sequels: I never watch ‘em plus the kind of movies that are naturals for sequels I rarely see in the first place.
