October 2, 2020. San Antonio, Texas. Baseball Playoffs.

Beginning on Tuesday, baseball playoff games were on TV. On Tuesday, 4 teams played the best of 3 game series. The next day, Wednesday, there were actually 8 games played. Beginning at noon, you could watch baseball all day. And on Thursday, 4 teams played. It was a baseball fans dream. Every evening we watched baseball while eating dinner and we loved every minute. Of course, some of our favorite teams lost in two straight games but there were other teams to cheer for to fill the void. This evening, the third game between the Cardinals and Padres were playing. The Cardinals won the first game and last evening were leading by 4 runs but at last, the Padres came alive and won the game. And they won the game tonight. So the Cardinals will be going home while the Padres get to play the Dodgers, the best team in baseball. Monday will start the best of 5 series, with 8 teams still in the hunt. David and I are off the baseball routine for the weekend, which is a good thing because boxes must be packed. . But beginning on Monday, we will again join the couch to eat dinner and watch basebal. The games have been entertaining. David smoked several pork loins to use for dinners, along with a large piece of salmon. All Suzanne does is make either a salad or vegetables and we are set for dinner. I love watching baseball playoffs and have been paying attention since 1948, when I listened on the radio. On Wednesday, when the games were on all afternoon I put my legs up on the couch in the TV room and closed my syes which seemed just like the old days when I "watched" on the radio. This is an odd year with no fans but the games are just as good. And we enjoyed every game. Now I am looking forward to next week, where the games are played one day after another. Pretty nice for me.
