...chuckle and shine up your magnetic baseball caps and write us nasty letters about how maybe we should take lessons from the Amazing Kreskin. Well, you could be right, but don't go out and mortgage the family farm so you can buy World Series tickets, because the Bosox aren't running away with anything just...
Also look for at least a couple of Beirmeister wins. The way the Bosox struggled against the formerly major-league Cleveland Indians this week indicates some real softness in their pitching staff, and the tribulations of former hitter George Scott look like they could be contagious...

The Brewers are the principal beneficiaries of the home-towner's El Foldo act, and could pull within a half-game of first place if they sweep the three-game set.

This could well mean the season, or at least a couple of broken bones--the blood between these two teams may well be bad, but it's usually pretty much in evidence...
