It's funny, Dan, that you should say this to someone, after you (in an earlier posting) wrote that my comments were "way off base". Maybe YOU should read more carefully before critisizing another, since you do it so often. Oh well, back to BASEBALL: It seems to me that it's a rare year when three races aren't decided with only three games to go in the season. I'll be watching the Cards-Cubs tonight on the tube you can bet. As far as AL rookies: Ted Higuera is 15-8 now after shutting out the Yanks. It may have been a very big rookie win. I think I would still vote for Riles as AL rookie, though. Does anyone know if Gooden is pitching this weekend? Jon Hanrath ihnp4!ltuxa!jmh
