York Prep Baseball
Final regular season record: 6-4
I.S.A.L. League: Third place
"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops."

It's more than balls and strikes...
Three baseball umpires were discussing how they made their decisions.
The first one said, "Some's balls and some's strikes and I calls 'em as they is."
The second umpire said, "Some's balls and some's strikes and I calls 'em as I sees 'em."
Then the third umpire said, "Some's balls and some's strikes but they ain't nothin' till I calls 'em."
The implications of these three points of view are, I believe, deep. The first umpire, who "calls 'em as they is," has a dogmatic, absolutistic, rigid attitude. The second one, who says, "I calls 'em as I sees 'em," has a very different world outlook: he realizes that his own nervous responses are involved in his decision. The third umpire has taken a more extreme position. When he says, "they ain't nothin' till I calls 'em," he has become aware that he himself imposes a pattern on the world of change and flux.
The student of semantics [i.e., all of us] must grapple with such profound considerations of man's relations to the world he lives in.
