The Pittsburgh Pirates-Milwaukee Brewers game currently being played is truly godawful. Rarely does one see futility illustrated in such colorful detail. I feel like when I was a little kid on the playground, and an older bully would grab me, take me down and grab the back of my neck, ultimately forcing me to look at a dead rat mere inches from my face. Having little choice, I took a good long look.
I have a choice now, but still I look because as it happens I am a big fan of nostalgia.
Anyway, last night I was lucky enough to see the Altoona Curve vs. Richmond Flying Squirrels game. And guess what? Altoona won. Soon there will be pictures fresh from an alternate dimension wherein a baseball team affiliated with the Pittsburgh Pirates is number one in its league by a healthy margin. And there are teams with names like The Flying Squirrels.
