“Linking” A Game To The Fine Television Series, “The Affair”

In a seemingly shocking and certainly highly emotional eighth episode of the Showtime series, “The Affair,” the character “Alison Bailey,” played by Ruth Wilson has died.

I like the show and look forward to the remaining two episodes of this season.

A “sports stretch” referencing the show as the next night, Monday August 6th, the Mets in a game won by Noah Syndergaard (there is a main character on “The Affair” named Noah Solloway, pretty close) defeated the Cincinnati Reds and their starting pitcher, Homer Bailey took the loss.

There is loss, there is real loss. There is fiction and reality, truth and lies.
