Today my Seattle Mariners inducted Ken Griffey Jr. into the Mariners Hall of Fame where he joins Hall of Fame broadcaster Dave Niehaus, Edgar Martinez, Alvin Davis AKA Mr. Mariner, Jay Buhner, Randy Johnson, and Dan Wilson. Just 3 more years until Griffey gets inducted into Cooperstown as a Mariner! Of course after honoring Griffey tonight, the Mariners then went on to lose 10-0 to the last place Milwaukeee Brewers.

Good stuff there with Junior going into the HoF... The Royals won 3 out of 4 over the BoSox today 4-3, what a great 2nd half for Kansas City...

Kansas City continues to have a great second half of the season with a sweep of the Tigers in their double header yesterday & there is still two more games those two play this weekend. The Royals are 64-57, but still have a uphill battle for that wild card spot...

my Las Vegas 51s currently lead the Sacramento River Cats by 2 games with about 5 games to go.
Sacramento (the AAA team for the Oakland As) has been a minor league powerhouse through the years as they won the division 11 times since moving to Sacramento from Vancouver in 2000 and during that 13 year period they have also won the PCL Championship 6 times.
I am hoping Las Vegas can keep their division lead. If so, it will be the first time Las Vegas makes the playoffs since 2002.

I am waiting for my friend to pick me and then we are going tonight to Game 3 of the 5 game playoff series between my Las Vegas 51s and the Salt Lake City Bees!
This will be the first time I have ever attended a professional baseball playoff game at any level. the 51s really need to win tonight because they are currently down 0-2 in the series.

I had an awesome time tonight as I got to see my Las Vegas 51s stay alive for another day by defeating Salt Lake City 3-2! It was also $1 beer night tonight at the stadium and I drank 9 beers for $9.
