Late Night
Unlike me, Clare watched enough of the White Sox game last night in
Anaheim to get her fill of Bill Walton as “color” man; Walton was the giant in
the booth wearing a tie-dye tee-shirt.
My daughter’s reward for subjecting herself to all the hippie-dippie
allusions was to see Sox catcher James McCann hit his second grand slam in
three days, good for a Sox 7-2 win over the Angels.
I didn’t run across any negative reviews of Walton’s performance, just as
I didn’t run across anyone considering what my daughter texted during the game: If a man who knows nothing about baseball can
be in the broadcast booth, so should any woman who knows the game.
What a strange, strange road it’s been.
