"The Yankees toured out last year!" Isaac runs into the room to tell me (he's watching the pre-game show before the Dodgers-Phillies game yesterday afternoon).
"They toured out?" I ask. "You mean they tore out their stadium?" thinking they were showing pictures of the old stadium.
"No! They toured it out...messed up the Angels!" he says with an emphatic swatting move of his right hand.
"What do you mean? Are they showing the Yankees winning on the TV?" I have no idea what he's watching or trying to say. But he tries again.
"Yeah, like we want the Dodgers to do today. The Yankees, last year, they toured out!"
I think I have it. "You mean they tore it up?"
Isaac's face changes...he's confused, no, thinking.
"You know," I say, "They took it to 'em. Tore it up. Did the Yankees tear up the Angels last year?"
His eyes sparkle. "Yeah. And the Dodgers are gonna tore it up today."
Well, so sad, funny story of the day, but fingers need to stay crossed for Sunday!

Just don't explain the meaning of "tore them a new one." Yeesh! But give it time. He'll be tearing it up and speaking properly in no time. LOL! As for your Dodgers, best of luck.
