Considering we started the Freedom Trail at 11:00 and didn't finish until about 6:00, we had to stop for lunch somewhere. We saw this place, the Purple Shamrock, which was advertising 1 1/4 lobsters for $10, and since we had talked about having seafood while in Boston, we decided to stop there and have lunch. While none of us ordered the lobster, we did have a good time waiting forever to have our order taken and our food brought to us. From the time we got seated to the time our food was brought to us was over an hour! A little frustrating to say the least.
However, while we there, we were seated right next to the screen you see in the picture. It is just there to run advertisements and one of the things it was showing was a place to send texts if you wanted to try to get them on the screen. Well, one of the things I said I wanted to do while in Boston was to thank everyone for giving the Dodgers Manny Ramirez. While I didn't do that, my friend Eric did. It happened to be the biggest one on the screen as you can see from the picture. How classic is that?!?!?!?!?!?! So, although I'm not directly responsible for it, we did thank Boston for Manny Ramirez.
Speaking of Manny Ramirez, as I speak, the Dodgers' magic number has been reduced to 2 thanks to the Cardinals beating the Diamondbacks today. Right now, the Dodgers are winning 6-3 in the 7th inning. If they hold on to win, that means our magic number will drop to 1! That means with 4 games left to play, we only have to win 1 game OR the Diamondbacks have to lose just one of their last four in order for us to go to the playoffs. How sweet is that! Oh and by the way, yesterday Manny Ramirez became only the second player in MLB history to have 50 RBI for two different teams in the same season. He is proof that one player can make a difference on a team.
