Another game

Take us out to the ball game. A double header on a sunny weekend when KP is up from Atlanta? Perfect when he joins Elisabeth, George Three and I take in some baseball. It makes it even better that the promotion in the second game led to the home team going back to the former…

A nod to Syracuse’s baseball past

Cheer, cheer, cheer for the Chiefs. And Stars. Syracuse has a solid baseball history, we were reminded on Saturday’s open house tour through the guts of NBT Bank Stadium.

Maybe it was the angle from our third-base side seats that came with our four-for-$60 deal. Maybe it was my timing. Whatever the reason, I’m glad to share this year. My dear wife…
