It was my first of the year (a crime given that I live 10 minutes away), but I couldn't have picked a better night to go. The crowd was DEAD through the first 5 innings and even the run in the sixth seemed like it was too little, too late. But then the bats popped and the crowd became electric. Guillen made up for an awful error he had with some spectacular defense near the end of the game. I questioned his All-Star selection after the error, but I'll admit he redeemed himself. New U.S. Citizen Placido Polanco should still be the rep, but Guillen is an OK choice. I heard on the way home that Bonine was sent to Erie immediately following the game. What a great game!
