Fresh off the first legitimately fun game in a while, the Mariners head to Boston for a four game series at Fenway Park, which John Updike once called “a compromise between Man’s Euclidean determinations and Nature’s beguiling irregularities.” That’s a much more charming review than I have for it: one of America’s worst ballparks. Is it so much to ask that the seats actually face the field?
Five thoughts on the lineup:
- Don’t panic. This is a planned off day for J.P.
- I don’t know what’s worse: having to watch Steven Souza play or the inevitable Steven Souza discourse.
