And that's another Bark: Not only is the World Series played only at night now, where baseball's single most poetic beauty is its timeless play under the summer sun, but now its Opening Day is Opening Night! Bah! Money has no heart or soul.
Anyways, I'm more interested in the goings on w/the Old Towne Team, and was reading Edes' column in today's Globe, particularly enjoying this bit:
And a true ''Who's on first" story, as related by Tony Jackson of the Los Angeles Daily News. Dodgers reliever Hong-Chih Kuo's best friend in the organization is minor league infielder and fellow Taiwan native Chin-Lung Hu, who was walking across the clubhouse when veteran center fielder Kenny Lofton spotted him.
''Hey Kuo, who's that guy you been hanging out with?" Lofton said.
''Hu," Kuo said.
''The guy you been hanging out with," Lofton said.
''Hu," Kuo repeated.
''That guy I saw you with yesterday," Lofton said.
''Hu," Kuo said yet again.
Finally, laughing Dodgers prospect Matt Kemp explained it to Lofton.

How strange! I was at Barnes and Noble, recently, and I came across a collection of "Shoe" comics, which I'd completely forgotten about (for us, they were always above Foxtrot). Anyway, I just happened to open up to the one complaining about night games....
Freaky!
