If you&#8217;re also traveling, to San Francisco for example, have a great time.  But, hope to see you in upstate NY.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m also really excited that Eric Gagne won the NL Cy Young Award.  He&#8217;s a Dodger, so of course that makes me happy, but he&#8217;s also an amazing reliever.<br \/>\n:::scott:::<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night, we did make it to see The Elf.
