Afternoon Baseball

Common-sense ruminations on baseball and culture.


It's a weekend edition because I've been neglectful of everything over at Afternoon Baseball.

Though it's near the trade deadline, I was thinking of Opening Day for some reason. Ted Williams, no surprise, stands as one of the best performers ever on that day, and Walter Johnson tossed nine of his 110 shutouts to start the year.

Ever have a sweater with you but unsure of what to do when it's too warm to be wearing it? Here are some options.

Since it was Induction Day, here's a recap of someone else's recent Cooperstown trip.

"The Bourne Ultimatum" is out Friday, and there's at least three trailers and a so-far perfect rating at Rotten Tomatoes about which to be excited. Outside of the disappointing news that Julia Stiles has an expanded role, I'm excited, too.

In non-link mode, FX's "Damages" looks really good. It's a nice, dark companion to the similar but funnier chaos on "Rescue Me." And, with the stable of shows that USA and other networks have, more and more the best work on TV is on cable.
