Coming Or Going

This past Saturday the Detroit Tigers and Baltimore Orioles played a split doubleheader at Comerica Park, the Tigers' home stadium. Game One was at 12:15 in the afternoon. Afterwards the stadium was cleared for the next crowd, who were expected for Game Two around 5:15.

I watched the first contest from home. It ended just before three, which allowed me to make it to Four O'clock Mass and be home for the second game. Serendipity.

Among those at Church was a man wearing a Brooks Robinson baseball jersey. Robinson is the great Baltimore third baseman from the 1960s and 1970s. When I noticed the fella standing a few pews in front of me I immediately thought, well, I either know where you're going or I know where you've been.
