When my convenience trumps tradition

I love baseball and I love the Dodgers. I have since 1959, when we moved south from Monterey to San Pedro just in time for the newly-arrived Dodgers to beat the Chicago White Sox in the World Series. I’ve always wanted to go to spring training at Vero Beach to see the team play someday. One reason: the atmosphere is more relaxed than that of a regular-season game (unless you’re a player trying to make the team). Another reason: to travel around and see lots of different teams.
Well, the Dodgers moved to Camelback Ranch in Phoenix last spring, and it looks like they’ve got lots of company. More than that, the travel distances are far shorter than they are in Florida, and Phoenix is 3,000 miles closer to me than Florida, too.
Someday just got a little sooner.

  1. I was hoping the Cubs would move to Florida for the same reason. It looks like they’ll be staying in Mesa, though.
    You ever do fantasy baseball?

  2. No, I’ve never tried.
    Harry, the Cubs? Shouldn’t you transfer your allegiance? It’s been 23 years since my guys won the WS, but at least it was in my lifetime.
