Finding Coover’s "The Universal Baseball Association” on a library shelf at Stanford in the 1980s

Regarding Robert Coover's "The Universal Baseball Association, Inc., J. Henry Waugh, Prop." (1968), I remember now that I did not read it in...

“The Universal Baseball Association, Inc., J. Henry Waugh, Prop." (1968), by Robert Coover (1932-2024)

When I recently had the idea of writing about mechanical pencils, I put it on my list of possible topics for daily prose. But only yesterday...

Pittsburgh's slide continues.

#TRIVIA QUESTION:

The other day, Amos Watson started for the Phillies and "Peanuts" Davis started for the Senators in #1947League

In real life, they each played for the same team in 1946.

What was that team?

Nope. First time anyone has used this hashtag. But that's going to change. At some point.
