Happy Saturday, all. This could be the second-to-last day of 2022 that we get two baseball games on the same day, so let's take it all in.

Joe Namath. Mark Messier. Joe from Brooklyn. "The Yankees in seven. Guaranteed." Love your confidence, Joe, but as we've learned the only sure things are death, taxes and subway crime.

Back on the winning side! We were one strike away from a perfect 3-0 leather jacket today. The Astros decided that Ryan Pressly was the best man to close out the ninth off an injury.
