Baseball in Britain for diehards only

I don't know whether I'm supposed to be getting up or going to sleep right now. It's after midnight in the east, the Red Sox have just beaten the Rockies in Game 2, and folks in London are starting to get up for work. mannyramirez.jpg

In other words, if you are a baseball fanatic in England, you really don't sleep very much. In fact, as I was starting to fade around midnight London time, I was looking for a score on Red Sox-Rockies, and all I kept seeing were highlights from the Red Sox rout in Game 1. I'm like, gimme a score already.

Then I realized that Game 2 hadn't even started! Five hour time difference is a bit of an adjustment.

It's 5:30 a.m. so I don't whether know sleep should I body clock ... um ... like, yeah ... I'm fine, really ... I'm gonna coffee get wake up maybe nap get up sleep room service! ... Whaddya mean I'm sense not making now right I am too just fine ...

Guess the Giants are feeling their own time zone weirdness right about now, too, because they're scheduled to land at Heathrow any minute.

Will catch them at practice about 7 hours from now at Chelsea's soccer club training site. Will let you know any updates. Especially interested to see what's going on with Steve Smith, who was limited in practice yesterday after going full out the day before.

Night night.
