R.A. Dickey launched his trademark knuckleball and Mark De Rosa tracked its flight. Just as De Rosa committed to swing, the filthy little pitch darted down and away, like some baseball thrown in a cartoon. De Rosa’s swing was a hopeless flail.

“Sorry,” called Dickey from the mound. “That just wasn’t fair.”

  Yes, team is starting to gel
  No, team is not championship calibre
  Unsure what to make of it
