Good morning, Camden Chatters.
The 2021 playoffs roll on tonight with the start of the American League Championship Series, featuring... (sigh) ... the Red Sox and the Astros.
The Red Sox and the Astros. Those are certainly, um, two AL teams. No doubt about that. Whether they’re the two teams we want to watch battle for supremacy of the league is a different question.
You could forgive baseball fans for feeling a little irritated that this is the matchup they’re stuck with. The Astros, of course, were famously outed for their sign-stealing, trash can-banging scandal that made them baseball’s most reviled villains, forever tainting their 2017 championship.
