baseball: unc @ duke, game two, originally uploaded by minervacat. Six. Yesterday’s game was a trainwreck of shitty pitching (on both sides) and bad umpiring (at first base). Game three takes the series today. It’s stopped raining, tickets are cheap, and there isn’t any other baseball going on in the Triangle today: why aren’t you…

(After seeing Alice in Wonderland last night, I compared it to yesterday’s game, which should serve as a review for both of them: they were both exciting, with plenty of interesting lovely things happening, and yet somehow they both managed to be kind of boring….

yanks @ o’s, originally uploaded by minervacat. I resolve to get up to my hometown to take more photos this year; Baltimore is a weird, gorgeous, decaying city, and I never give it enough credit.

baseball: uva @ unc, game 2, originally uploaded by minervacat. In a few years, Allah willing, this boy will wear pinstripes in the major leagues and maybe he will win championships, and I will love him just as well then as I did when he wore Carolina blue, which was pretty much the best.
