We’ve been away for the past two weeks, but the Baseball Babes are back! I honestly can’t believe it’s already June. The Yankees have been having one heck of a season. When you take in account all the injuries of some big time players it can be a little surprising at well we've been doing. But that’s baseball for ya. Sometimes it just doesn’t make a lick of sense.
The beginning of last week the Yankees went up against the NY Mets. Now, before the Mets and Yankees stepped on the field together the Mets had an 18-29 record—indicating that they’ve had their share of struggles. Even the Mets’ COO in so many words said his team wouldn’t be making it to the playoffs. The Yankees’ record was 30-20. Now, who do you think took that series based on those numbers? The Yankees, right? So, you can understand my dropped jaw when the freaking Mets swept my Yanks. So, I will say it again, “that’s baseball for ya”.
After leaving NY, the Mets went to Miami to play the Marlins. The Marlins are one of the worst teams in baseball right now. And what happens, you might ask? The Marlins sweep the Mets! How in the heck did that happen? I have no idea. Again, “that’s baseball for ya”.

I guess that keeps the game interesting and completely unpredictable. Sometimes there is a pitching ace on the mound who just doesn’t have their best stuff that day. Or maybe for some reason the bats have gone quiet on a potent offensive team. Hell, it could be because a squirrel ran across the field…lol. Fans just never know what’s in store when their team takes the field. It can drive us crazy…but we love it.
