October Baseball

That was quite an exciting end to the 2010 baseball season.

The Jays took 3 out of 4 in Minny. Jose Bautista ended up with 54 bombs. The Jays had a 10 game improvement over 2009. All the loose knots were tied up for Toronto.

Atlanta secured itself a Wild Card spot. The Rays took the AL East title from the Yanks. San Diego disappointingly choked in the last second. I really wanted to see a one game playoff though. Those are ALWAYS very tense and exciting. But hey, I'm looking forward to the LDS's.

Been really busy these days, preparing for university applications and scholarships and such. Watching sports has really been a stress reliever though. Yesterday morning, I caught live coverage of the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi. It was great to see some Indian culture on display. Being a Chinese and a Canadian who's seen both his cultures on display for the world, I think I really have an appreciation for these ceremonies now. Though I'm not sure JaiHo was the right choice to end off the ceremony.

Canada is already on the board after Day 1 with 1 gold and 3 bronze. Don't think they'll beat the Aussies though.
