Not a bad set of teams to go see for a $1 donation to the Boys and Girls Club.

Unfortunately I can't make any of these dates, but hopefully many people will take advantage.

Update: Nick homers in the bottom of the 6th, cuts the lead to 2-1.

Update: The Expos send eight batters to the plate in the bottom of the 7th. Wilkerson, Chavez and Vidro score on hits by Vidro, Gonzalez (fielder's choice) and Nick "The Stick" Johnson, respectively. Nick has 6 RBI (and counting?) in two games. Hernandez is back out on the mound for the 8th having thrown 90 pitches and not letting a batter reach 2nd base since the 3rd inning. In typing this, Hernandez has gotten two batters out.

Update: 13,500+ fans on hand for Youppi's birthday today. 35k+ for the series. Livan gets out of the inning, just three more outs for the win. The Expos are still 7 games behind the Mets, who have been in their sights for a while.

Later.
