I enjoy the morning games. But do tend to stay away from where the kids are sitting. Linking baseball and school is a good thing. See Peggy Noonan's WSJ column today for a similar theme.

The real heroes of those games are the teacher/parent chaperones who have to keep those excited happy kids organized and together

My oldest son is on his first school field trip today, so this was a joy to read. Also, where ever I've lived I've always taken in the Business-person's Special. Noon at PNC Park with only a handful of Yinzer's makes for a good time out!
