With rain falling in New York City 24 of the past 27 days, Mother Nature got our attention and made a late run for Mother of the Year honors. Too little, too late. Lori “The Lock” Loughlin was a landslide winner. You don’t mess with Mother Nature. But truth is, if Lori owned Derby winner Maximum Security, he would have stayed the winner after a couple of phone calls to the stewards office. Congratulations and Happy Mother’s Day, Lori!
Ks will reign at Citi Field on Sunday. That is, if the expected rain allows strikeout specialists Caleb Smith and Noah Syndergaard the opportunity.
