Bad defense bad.

maslow’s hierarchy of baseball needs ends with Defense at the top. We aren’t there yet.

Philip, did you see the PBS program the other night with young (30ish) artists performing Schubert compositions? Not my usual fare. I watched because a friend's son and daughter-in-law were among the performers. 

No I didn’t! I’d love to. Is there a link where I could watch it?
Schubert was the greatest melodist who ever lived. If you listen to the first 45 seconds of the great C major symphony(at the proper tempo, of course) you’ll listen to the whole thing. And even if you don’t, listen to the finale, which is so joyful. Or the slow movement of the Bflat Trio, which will make you cry, and I’ll buy you a beer if it doesn’t. And so on... congrats to your children! You must have been very proud!

The hourglass is almost empty. My thanks to Tony, Weams, and everyone who posts here for a season that was more fun and more interesting than I expected.

I don't think so, but I'll look.  

Not my children, my friend's (since first grade) children. Both Julliard graduates -- a pianist and a singer.

Nice way to end the season!
