: The Common ScoldA PERFECT DAY
Huge thank yous to LTN edit bd members Andy Jurczyk of Sonnenschein, and to David Baker of Baker Robbins Co., for conspiring to grant me a perfect beisbol day, as part of a trip to Chicago this week.
A rare day/night Chicago/NY doubleheader at Wrigley and the Cell. Too kewl for words. But here's The NY Times coverage (and their photo, right, actually a Getty photo.) Last time that happened was 1980.
It was one of those rare travel days where the stars absolutely aligned -- I got a NYC cab in 2 minutes, there were no lines at LGA, I got right out earlier standby flight, with an upgrade.
I got a $5 CTA day pass so I could shuttle from O'Hare to the hotel and between the parks. The Palmer House (1 block from the El) gave me an upgrade to an outrageous suite (why is it you only get realllllly great upgrades when you awake for 1 hour but I'm not complaining).
The weather was flat-out awesome all day, warm with a hint of humidity. And the Yankees won a great slugfest with homeruns and grand slams flying outta the stadium. Fabulous seats in both parks. Great conversation. Lousy hot dogs.
Life is good.
In fact, it was perfection. A perfect day. Thank you, thank you, beisbol gods. Thank you David and Andy.
P.S. Check out Baker at last year's Fantasy camp! (above)
