Thanks, Rick, and I guess it would've bothered me less if, as one of those people who follows one of the thirteen AL teams that aren't the New York Yankees, I hadn't noticed that there were so damn many boys in Bronx pinstripes on this year's team. Especially given that there were only what--3 or 4 from the Mariners, plainly the best team in baseball at this point, compared to, I believe, 7 for the Yanks.

Oh well, the Junior Circuit won the game, and Ripken was MVP, so I don't have too much to complain about.
