Well, this what you get when you try to write up a game story at 3 a.m., six hours after playing the contest when it's hot and humid and you're gassed: a fat error, followed by a big fried egg on your face.
In the first line, I wrote of the July 17 contest between the Americans and Yanks, won by the Yanks 7-6, that the Americans faced the Peppers that night.
Don't any of you believe that.
We, my Americans, played the Yanks in a lively, back-and-forth game, not settled till the last out, with Americans threatening.
An upside here? Nobody in the league wrote in to correct me.
I suppose that's an upside. Maybe not.
In any case, hope it entertained. Better proofreading to come.
