Play Ball!
I had a dream Saturday night that I went to an Anaheim Angels game with - get this - Wil Wheaton. They were playing against the Ventura Cowboys (no idea where I got that one). The really weird thing is that Anaheim DID play in the first game of the season, they lost to Cleveland 6-0.
My hometown team is the Shreveport Captains, the San Francisco Giants' AA affiliate. Oh, excuse me, I meant the Shreveport "Swamp Dragons". After that boneheaded name change sent people away in droves, the new owners of the team decided that another change was in order, so they're moving the team to Frisco, Texas at the end of the season. The Caps were here for like 40 years, and before that we had the Shreveport Sports, but now Fairgrounds Field, which Larry King once called the best AA ballpark in the country, will be empty. I gotta try to get to some games this year, and take my son, too.
