YOUR BREMERTON SUN MISSED THE BOAT TODAY.
This came across the wire yesterday, and it should be in the Sun nonetheless, but isn't. Ladies and gentlemen, Central Kitsap graduate Todd Linden (who will be way better than Bloomquist -- take THAT, South) has been called up to the Major League roster for the San Francisco Giants. He went 0-for-4 and got the start in left field in the Giants 4-0 loss in Montreal today.
In a semi-local turn, the Little Leaguers from Richland lost their second straight game in the LLWS at Williamsport. Ironic that the Mariners beat Boston, but the Nomar-lovers from Saugus, MA beat the Boone boys from Richland. You can't have both, I guess.
And in very local sports, 2002 B-town grad Dana Kirk nabbed the bronze at the Pan Am Games. Kirk the Taller, a Stanford soph-to-be, was a mere 0.04 seconds short of the silver medal. Attaway, D-Kirk.
I guess the only Mariner news today is this: Guillen and Cirillo are both set to come back to the big club soon. Who plays third? Time will tell.
It's a slow day in sports, what with half a Major League slate. What else was I gonna talk about? The Storm losing? Come on.
Have a great day, y'all. Now I gotta study for my two tests I have tomorrow.
