Clemens is now in the on-deck circle. Atlanta is out of pitchers, Houston out of position players. Bottom of 15th now. And there could still be a game tomorrow.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Gay, not gay, or just pretending for publicity?
It's all very confusing.

And hey is that Millie/whatever her name was on Buffy getting squirted in the face in an Ask Jeeves commercial? If so, I am annoyed on her behalf that those boys from Freeks and Geeks are in tv shows and movies and whatnot now.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Going to the sixteenth...

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Drama! I'm glad I am not the only one watching. I am currently indoctrinating my mother in what it is all about.
OMG, on to the 16th inning. This ties the record for postseason games. (1986, Mets vs. Astros) I don't know how long it's been in hours, but somehow I think they're getting close to last year's 5 hour, 49 minute BOS/NYY game.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sure, Kat -- your neck of the woods, or mine?

It seems doubly dramatic the way Nutty tells it.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Heh. Between them, pitcher and hitter -- Clemens and Julio Franco -- total 90 years of age. Add in the catcher (who is a piddling 33 years old) and you break the century.
Poor Ausmus played most of the regular innings at catcher, then switched to 1B, and is back at catcher now. I don't imagine his knees could take the whole double-game without a break, and they're out of replacements.
