Some Baseball History -

In his first major league game, Ruth did not record a hit (going 0-for-2 with a strikeout against left-hander Willie Mitchell) and was eventually pulled for a pinch hitter in the seventh inning. Despite the slow start at the plate, he secured the first of his 94 career pitching victories.

What job have you been offered in the past that you know you were not qualified for but you took it anyway?
Good Morning Gutter Friends, so happy the weekend is here. Going to do some yard work today. The weather has broken from the 90s to the 70s-80s the past couple of days and it's wonderful. Going for a couple of procedures at the end of the week as follow up to my recent surgery. Hoping and praying that I do not need another surgery and that they don't find anything serious. Am trying to keep my mind off it and have a positive attitude, to ward off anxiety. Wishing everyone a wonderful day and hoping to catch up on all the posts from the work week. JM
