2017 Playoffs: Division Series Games

When I go a traveling it’s usually because I’m doing stuff, even in places as pleasant as Stars Hollow By The Sea and Stars Hollow North Lake, and I have to prioritize that. As I had feared, what’s happening is more important than Baseball Games so I’ve had to forgo covering them as I usually …
