I’m halfway between my family’s ancestral home and one and only screening of the much buzzed-about “Big Fan” at the Los Angeles Film Festival with roughly zero time to spare, having ducked into a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf off the 101 somewhere in the wilds of Encino.

Anyhow, for reasons known only to me and best left mysterious, even though the movie starring the very talented comedian and actor Patton Oswald is about a football fan, here are a couple of baseball related clips. It’s been that kind of a day.

So, sometimes there is crying in baseball.

More substantive posts coming soon.
