3. I was listening, not watching
But, yeah. I learned a long time ago to take nothing — nothing for granted in a Giants-Dodgers game.

(Go figure. Today's game went 11 innings and was 36 minutes shorter. 'Course, it was 1-0, not 10-7 with 15 walks, 22 runners left on and 14 pitchers. And we didn't win.) x(

6. My that's a quick game of cricket...
In Test Match Cricket, 8 1/2 innings will take you that many days.
