Valdez sinks Licey. Aguilas is leery of Leury. The Hague decides in favor of Este.

Oswaldo Arcia continues to hit. Magallanes got some Lively pitching, but it wasn't enough to overcome four unearned runs.

Kenesaw Landis, as I'm sure you know, was the first commissioner of baseball, holding the job from 1920 until his death in 1944.
Pitcher Clark Griffith was a star for the Cubs before jumping to the White Sox when the American League was formed. Later, of course, was the owner of the Twins franchise while it was still in Washington. His adopted son, Calvin, brought the team to Minnesota.
Ron Cash was drafted by Minnesota in the sixth round in 1969, but did not sign.

The Wizards are awful. Probably on purpose because Randy Wittman is still their coach.
The Wolves are in the front end of back to back (home to the Clippers tomorrow) and the beginning of 4 games in 5 days. Lets hope for a blowout early and the D Will plays 20 second half minutes
