Today's Family Email Exchange


Before I get started, Manny and Ortiz in the 3rd inning hit back to back homeruns against the Blue Jays and Millar just just hit a single off of Wang with 2 RBI's. The Orioles are in the race and not letting up!!! 5-4 Baltimore. Vertitek just homered to right. YEAH! 4-2 Boston OhmyGod bases loaded walk, Baltimore is up 6-4. My head is spinning. Focus.
