A Wild Wacha Wednesday

Well my Wednesday could be just as crazy as the game stat below. I'll let you decide. My normal work hours are 7:30pm to 6am an I usually sleep from 6:30am to about 2am. Well yesterday I left work at 5am went to bed got up at 7:45am to help the wife get the boys ready for preschool then went back to bed from 8:45am to about 12:30pm. Then had an interview at 2:30pm got home about 3:30pm.  Played outside with the kids till about 5:15pm then came into work at 6:30pm which is an hour early for a coworkers retirement party plus doing my normal job after that. Phew all in less than 24 hours. Plus this weekend my oldest has 3 T-ball games in 4 days plus opening ceremonies Saturday morning. Weekend doesn't look  like much relaxing or downtime either. Oh well wouldn't have it any other way. 

The Mets Cardnials game sure was a wild one this evening. Michael Wacha had 10 strikeouts in 4 innings worth of work pretty amazing, but he also had 5 walks in that time frame and only lasted 4 innings. Two of those walks were with bases loaded.  The Mets ended up winning 3-2 in a large part due to their catcher d'Arnaud applying a beautiful tag at home with wonderful throws from Nieuwenheis and Tejada.

Well being it was a crazy day. I'm showing off a card I got a crazy steal on a few months back. Here is a 2013 Panini Penpals auto of Geno Smith, Tavon Austin, and Stedman Bailey which was picked up pretty cheap compared to other auctions.   Plus these are on card autos and not stickers. Just wish I knew what these were numbered too.

  2. This is the first year of organized sports and activities so it'll be interesting. Plus we have a soon to be 2yr old too that really keeps us on our toes. So this should be interesting.
