Tonight is the final home game of the Giants' 2007 season. It is also the end of a 15-year era.

Thank you, Barry.

756 and counting

May they please kick the crap out of the Padres tonight.

Oh, and despite the announcement today, INNOCENT UNLESS PROVEN GUILTY.

I hope the home finale in SF went better than the home finale here, with the rain delays and anti-climactic finish.

Jim Leyland did one classy thing - he pulled Magglio Ordonez for a pinch-runner so that the fans could give him a standing ovation and one last "M-V-P" chant. He won't win - A-Rod has just been too good - but this is the best year by a Tiger in a long, long time.

I still can't figure out where Barry will end up next year. The teams that might put out that kind of money already have full-time DHs. I can't imagine he would want to put himself in the NY spotlight, the Red Sox don't need him, the Angels are going to have Guerrero DHing a lot. People keep saying he'd come here to play for Leyland, but the Tigers already have a DH that 1) is a huge favorite of Leyland's and 2) hates Barry Bonds.

The Orioles? Texas? I have no idea.

We were down 10-2 when Doug went to bed, so no, not really.
