Pretty in pink

I really like Major League Baseball’s Mother’s Day celebration. It’s nice that they honor mothers and even nicer that they raise money for and awareness of breast cancer. Plus it’s sweet seeing all those tough athletes with pink bats, pink ribbons, pink wristbands, pink necklaces (!), even a few pink shoes. (Yes, I know they call them “spikes” but really - pink spikes? I don’t think so.)

What made my day today though was one of the WGN announcers for the Cubs-Milwaukee game explaining a batter's difficulties by saying he was trying to “lift and separate”.

I love baseball.
