I don't get why this would be true:

Nationals Notes: Washington could sign former major leaguer Jose Macias, who spent last year playing in Japan, to a minor league contract that would give him a chance to be the backup third baseman, according to sources with knowledge of the situation. Macias is a .256 career hitter over six full major league seasons in which he has played in the outfield, at second base and at third. . . .

Hey all, I'm new to the site, but so far have enjoyed reading Al's posts and all the diaries on the side. =)

Anyway, a couple of my buddies and I were watching the game today, at one of our apartments. After being depressed about the score going into the 8th inning, we decided to raid the guy's fridge and started munching a bag of cheddar cheese cubes and some crackers. That's when the rally started and we ended up winning the game!!

Moral of the story: Eat lots of cheese when the cubs play until my cheesey cubs winning theory is unproven. =D
