Found April 17, 2010 on This Purist Bleeds Pinstripes:

After watching the Yankees play a very nice, very solid game against the Rangers, I turn on the Mets game to do as any good Yankee fan does, and root for the opposition.

That game is still, somehow, almost incompetently, scoreless in the sixteenth inning when someone mentions that Ubaldo Jimenez is pitching a no-hitter for the Rockies.

So I hit the mlb.tv tab on my computer, put that on, watch Jimenez hit 98 mph with his last pitch, and then find that the Mets/Cardinals game is still on.

162 games a season, times 15 for thirty teams, and you never know what might happen.

Baseball is all about routine, they say.

Except when it’s not.
