The big Game 7 HRs came from Muncy (originally signed for minimum salary after A's released him), Rojas (signed as minor league free agent, traded away, re-acquired in trade for a journeyman), and Smith (drafted by Dodgers, 32nd overall).

Last month I was shopping for a fire blanket to hang over the pellet stove for safety, and the 5-star blanket had thousands of reviews about how easy it was to install, how good it looked, and how safe it made them feel.

The 1-star reviews all said "the fire blanket caught on fire"
