Workman sustains another loss

Like has happened so often this season, former Bowie High School standout Brandon Workman was the victim of not enough run support.
Workman allowed just two earned runs on six hits while striking out five and walking two as the American League West-leading Los Angeles Angels defeated the Boston Red Sox 4-2 at Fenway Park.
Overall, Workman threw 89 pitches, 59 of them for strikes.
“I was kind of on the aggressive side towards them,” Workman told the Boston Globe after the game. “I was able to do that tonight. Made it to where I was getting guys to swing at some pitches out of the zone for me, because I was throwing a lot of strikes.”
With the loss, Workman dropped to 1-7 on the season with a 4.26 earned run average.
Boston also committed a pair of errors.
Workman pulled through the first couple of innings without any damage, but the Angels got to him in the third.
Kole Calhoun walked, followed by a Mike Trout RBI double. Albert Pujols finished off the scoring with a single to score Trout from second.
Boston scored its lone run for Workman during the fourth inning as fellow Texan Brock Holt singled to score Mookie Betts. Read more in the mid-week edition of The Bowie News.

The Garden Guy surfed the web and stumbled across a photo you most likely have never seen. It featured three Proven Winners National Plants of the Year in a wonderful combination.
The flowers were the Safari Dusk Jamesbrittenia or South African phlox which is the ‘Annual of the Year.’ The combo also featured Supertunia Hoopla Vivid Orchid the ‘Petunia of the Year’ and Heart to Heart Chinook the ‘Caladium of the Year.’

Food is supposed to bring people together.
It sits at the center of our holidays, church potlucks, birthday parties, first dates, family reunions and late-night kitchen conversations. In Texas especially, I feel like feeding people is one of the purest forms of love we know. We celebrate with casseroles, comfort with pies, and gather around smoked meats and shared desserts.
Food is hospitality. Food is belonging.
But for some people, food is also calculation.
Before the appetizers even arrive, some of us are already scanning ingredients, evaluating risk, rehearsing questions, and trying to determine whether asking those questions is about to make everyone at the table uncomfortable.
