watching these games from Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic makes me look forward to sitting at a ballpark in shorts and short sleeves.

Tonight's crowd was about pitiful.

I read an article in The Athletic probably a couple of weeks ago about winter ball. Discussed how the Puerto Rican league had lost some of its luster over the years, while the Dominican league had improved. I think Yadi played religiously in the Puerto Rican league; I wonder if he's taking it easy since (IIRC) he's in the final year of his contract and may be retiring, or if he did play, but his team didn't advance.

I was schooled on his greatness watching him during the world series in which he singlehandedly beat the Baltimore Orioles in their dynasty days. Defense, offense, base running. One of the very best to ever play.
