Quick update.

Last night the Yankees beat the Indians in a winner-take-all game to advance in the playoffs. For 4 innings, the Yankees were ahead 3-2 and it felt like the Indians were going to come back the whole time.

Jack declared, “This is the most stressed I’ve ever felt.”

Then in the 8th inning, Brett Gardner had a 12-pitch at bat and finally knocked in 2 runs.

Jack leaped in joy, then collapsed in relief.

    I looked like that when the Red Sox lost. To the victor belongs the “SPOILS”.
