Insipid Observations

Baseball, the outdoors, and blogging. . . what else is there?

Hopefully I’ll have time to work on them more…

Baseball fans are hoping that President Clinton may throw out the first pitch at one of the World Series games.

“Normally, we’d ask Hillary,” said a baseball spokesman. “Because she seems to be the one with the balls.”

Lou Gehrig holds the record for most grand slams at the record of 23.

He also made his debut with the Yankees on June 15, 1923.

A 13-year-old Arizona boy died after a baseball hit him over the heart as he tried to bunt in a Little League game, officials said.

Hayden Walton went for the bunt during a game Tuesday night in the close-knit northern Arizona city of Winslow, said Jamey Jones, a Winslow Little League official.

“He took an inside pitch right in the chest,” Jones said Friday. “After that he took two steps to first base and collapsed.”

He died the next morning at a local hospital.

The boy’s parents, who were at the game, were shocked and unable to speak to members of the media, league president and family spokesman Dale Thomas said.

“It’s a hard thing to handle for everyone,” Thomas said. “When you’re touched by something of this magnitude, it sends shock waves throughout the community.”
