Diamondbacks 7, San Francisco 3: Going Out on a High Note

I will be honest with you, I got home tonight not wanting to write about baseball. I’m back at work this week, getting ready to teach academic argument (and creative writing) to a bunch of high schoolers for the first time in my life, and the last two days have been filled with on-site training regarding everything from syllabus construction to classroom management to IEPs and 504s and SPED requirements under state and federal law (acronyms are common in my world) to suicide prevention. I need to be at work in less than twelve hours to start the day learning our new post-Uvalde active shooter lockdown procedure.
