MLB Pennant Chase Heats Up

31 August, 2009

I love baseball. Got hats to prove it. I'm not, however, the constant fan I was in my youth.

As a kid I devoured sports pages, compiling dossiers on every player. I had the time. I admire anyone today who follows baseball over the 162-game season. It takes resolve and patience. Not my long suits.

What I do follow, admittedly less admirable, is the MLB pennant chase and the post-season. There's no shortage of tension and talent. I wear mittens for the sake of my fingernails. Track my baseball coverage from now until the final pitch in October, and I'll show you what bandwagon really means.
