We had a nasty coastal storm here in Jersey, kicked up 16 foot waves offshore, blew in last night, poured rain. Memorable only for shore town public works depts when they check out how much beach they lost (except Wildwood, which gets wider). It's the unnamed storms that chew up the coast. This was the first offseason nor'easter, & if one of those storms moves slowly enough, heavy rain or not, & the sand-piling bulldozers haven't had time to stay ahead of it, stuff falls down & floats away.
Look Mets, here's the deal: When you give up six runs you lose more than you win. Doesn't make any difference how you give up the runs, or which innings they're scored in. If, at the end of the game, the other team has six runs, it's more likely you'll have lost than won.
