Well, many of us saw Chuck(ie) Knoblach both at the ball park and down on
First Avenue.  A hometown -wannabe-in-training, got his training in
Minneapolis and tonight his work paid off -  all his dues were paid back
tonight.
A subway series - New York and New York's (with New Jersey thrown in) way
of having a neighborhood squabble.
I certainly am not opposed to figuring out which neighborhood should host a
ballpark - maybe I'm old fashioned but hanging out around an outdoor
ballpark brings about lots of community spirit and memories for many of us
- want some real baseball history go back to the Negro League Baseball in
the early 20th century when it was a major form of entertainment - people
wore suits (tuxes often) and  the women dressed to the nine's in their
jewels and all (like we all did for the Mayor's Inaugural). This dressing
up - just to go to a baseball game.
Remember it is about Mother, apple pie and baseball.
Get out the vote - Nov. 7th.
