May 11-13 Weekend Preview



As we prepare to celebrate Mother's Day with the Blue Jays, we admit that we did not envision becoming the people described in the photo above.  We have George and Clark to thank for that - and we will miss it when it's over.  Happy Mother's Day!

The Blue Jays have a rematch with the Cardinals this week.  The forecast for practice could not be better.  As usual, the game day forecast is iffy.
