Thanks to a night game at Wrigley Field, and a very long rain delay, today I had the rare opportunity to have a baseball experience late at night. So late that it was technically the next day.
Here’s the story of this experience, which appeared today on ThroughTheFenceBaseball.com. I hope it gives even the slightest sense of what being in the shadows of Wrigley Field in the early morning hours felt like. It was an experience worth writing about, at least in my book.

I wanted to let you know I put up a new post today on my 1979 Topps blog. I try to link each card to a blog related to the team, and today you get the honor. Here’s the link:

I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks so much for the honor and the kind words. It really means a lot to me. 1979 was one of those years that will always be special to me, both for baseball cards and for life itself. It was the summer of The Knack’s My Sharona, and that all by itself is pretty special. Thanks again for the recognition!
