London calling Yanks & Sox
JULY Fourth is over. Also over is Operation Baseball in that Mother Country from which we escaped after being a colony and establish July Fourth.
So here’s what you didn’t hear: Baseball is catching on in England. Next year their shtick might be another import. Another USA game. Being discussed is the Cardinals versus the Cubs. And — blimey! — wouldn’t that excite us all like leftovers of warmed up shepherd’s pie.
But — if so — what might the ab-fab all-star pinstriped Bronx Bombers New York winning Yankees do? There’s chat about
Kevin Costner’s ’89 Oscar nominee “Field of Dreams.” The scenario was he created a field on his Iowa land after a mysterious voice in his head said, “If you build it, they will come.” Could be maybe possibly the Yankees build a larger stadium. In Iowa.
Like, play the White Sox. Then leave that field for the locals. The ear that’s as large as an elephant’s ear is picking up that talk.
Leftover is maybe what you didn’t hear from Over There:
After both teams brought goodies for new baby Archie, Mrs. Prince Harry said about the Yankee’s present of a onesie: “This outdoes the gift from the people next door.” This comment possibly gets denied by the palace — but they deny everything. Buckingham still denies HM’s name is Elizabeth.
More. Back when DJT was there, the prez and the maj got on great. She enjoyed him. I don’t mean the queen’s going to invite Donald over for Passover or anything, but she enjoyed his company. So, just to be correct, no, he’s not taking over Buckingham to make it a condo. No, we’re not talking Trump Palace.
