Uninformed People Are Fun!

Got a call at work this morning. After dispensing with the boring, business-related stuff, we get to gabbing about baseball.

"Those Cubs of yours still in last place?" he asks.

No. We're in second. Not tearing up the league, but not as godawful as people thought we'd be.

"Oh. Well, it would help if Soriano would start hitting," he says.

It has. He's up over .300, and (not coincidentally) we've had a good two weeks.

"Oh. Has Jason Marquis given up ten runs in an inning yet?"

Ummm...no. In fact, he's won five and had a complete game shutout.

"Oh...well, gotta run."

Call back anytime.
