baseball: charlotte knights @ durham bulls, originally uploaded by minervacat. This is Jake Peavy. He is very, very attractive. He is, when he is healthy, very, very good at baseball. He has a heeeeeeeatah, as our drunk ex-Masshole once-and-future seatmate Aaron would say. We sat fifteen feet from where he threw bullpen today. He is…
baseball: scranton/wilkes-barre yankees @ durham bulls
baseball: scranton/wilkes-barre yankees @ durham bulls, originally uploaded by minervacat. It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart.

baseball: norfolk tides @ durham bulls, originally uploaded by minervacat. Tonight, sitting on my porch in the damp twilight listening to the Dexateens and smushing mosquitos, every minute I spend without a camera in my hands feels wasted. It’s only almost August, not almost January, but I’m making a lot of resolutions in my head…

baseball: buffalo bison (cleveland aaa) @ durham bulls (tampa bay aaa), originally uploaded by minervacat. One from the archives; July 2008. There’s 5 minor league teams within 120 miles of Carrboro, if you count Kinston and we almost do, plus a handful more if you’re willing to go 3 hours out, so that’s what I’ll…
