Hello, friends.

As you know if you’ve read anything I’ve ever written on this website, it’s been the length of my life plus a few weeks since the Orioles last won the World Series. Anybody my age or younger, we’ve never been alive to see it happen. Younger than 45 and you probably don’t have any real memory of it. That’s the real prize, and this year wasn’t the year. What we just got this year is the next-best consolation prize, which is the Yankees title drought now reaching 15 years.

The Dodgers sealed it last night, coming back from a 5-0 deficit in Game 5 of the World Series to tie things up.
