I`m glad to see that someone else besides myself has been
watching the batting average list to see Wade Boggs slowly
and quietly move himself up over .370 at the same time
Carew has slipped under .400.  Boggs is in his second
season in Boston (Red Sox fans correct me if I`m wrong).
Last year he had a very good average as I recall (.350 or
higher), and is showing that the sophomore jinx hasn`t
hit him.  I don`t know how good he is in the field, though.
Maybe some Boston fans could give us some more info on
this young sensation.

On a different note, did you see that Phillie fired Pat
Corrales?  I haven`t seen a paper in a few days, but I
know they`re right in the thick of the NL East race,
which makes it unusual.  What happened?

P.S.  Don`t look now, but the Pirates are HOT, and my poor
      Cubbies are not.
