I may have overreacted a bit yesterday. I mean, they show promise (apart from a batting plague in the outfield and the obvious struggles of some starters early on) and of course, 1-run games can easily go either way.

However, that's not the start I imagined. Period.

The Canadiens have trouble getting the bats up early on, if I remember correctly.

Plus, something went completely unmentioned yesterday! Christopher Powell's 8+ innings heroics yesterday earned him his 107th career win. Now, he went 7-6 with the Gold Sox before being acquired in trade by the Raccoons in 1977.

That makes Old Chris the franchise's first 100-game winner!!
