    FIELD OF DREAMS TONIGHT -- Just seeing the field gives me chills

    FIELD OF DREAMS TONIGHT -- Just seeing the field gives me chills

    FIELD OF DREAMS TONIGHT -- Just seeing the field gives me chills

    As an adult male soon to be classified as "senior citizen", Field of Dreams is one of only three movies in my life that I recall bringing me to tears in a theater. No -- you don't know me well enough to know the others. Watching the pregame set-up with Costner narrating, I got goosebumps all...

    THURSDAY MINORS FINAL 8/12/21; Cusick delivers in debut

    Can't help but wonder if this puts the farm system structure on the table in the upcoming CBA talks. In terms of getting the kids in the Florida-based camps playing time, this year has been a disaster.

    Will Smith tipping his pitches?

    Never lose sight of the fact he's a left-hander.

    THURSDAY MINORS FINAL 8/12/21; Cusick delivers in debut

    Gameday does not explain how Mississippi's winning run scored (help?). In bottom of ninth, Alexander walks, steals second, goes to third on Rijo fly ball and ... what? There was no error given, Rijo wasn't credited with a sacrifice fly. Play-by-play says "Rijo flies out, pitcher Braden Webb to...

    GDT 8/5/2021 Braves @ Cardinals - Leaving Mediocrity in the Rearview Mirror

    Which why I am still happy I was able to witness the Redbirds' elo foldo in the 1996 NLCS. Braves were down 3 games to 1 and won 14-0, 3-1 and 15-0 -- the last two at Busch. I prefer remembering that to Jim Leyritz in the Series.

    GDT 8/5/2021 Braves @ Cardinals - Leaving Mediocrity in the Rearview Mirror

    Smith's at-bat was so feeble, d'Arnaud could have made better contact while he still had his cast on. Crossing my fingers that this is the last game he plays for the Braves.

    Reports: Marcell Ozuna Arrested For Domestic Battery

    Seems like (with the few facts we know) that the biggest difference between Ozuna and Cox is that cops arrived to witness at least part of the incident. The effect, without the cause.
