A Day-Night Sweep!

Today we found 52 cents in change and 100 bottles and cans.

It wasn’t pretty, but we got two wins from the Tigers. Julian Tavarez pitched a beauty in the first game and we somehow scratched up enough runs to get him the win. Coco Crisp’s play early on the base-paths proved to be important as it led to one of the runs the sox scored. That with some good defense help preserved the win.
Hinske was the hero in the second game, both offensively and defensively, hitting a two-run bomb late and making a diving, albeit painful catch to snuff out a tiger rally. The best part about the Red Sox wins was that the Yankees lost in the process putting them 9 ½ games behind Boston. Yeah Baby!

Money Report – All of our coin finds came during the evening walk. At the car wash we found a total of 41 cents (1 quarter, 1 dime and 6 pennies) all but one penny was found in and around the vacuum areas scattered on the ground. One penny was found in the self-serve bays. In addition, we also found a watch and a pair of sunglasses.

The final 11 cents of the day was found at the 7-11. Both coins (1 dime and 1 penny) were found sitting on the ledge of a payphone.

Good Night and Good Hunting~
