Back on July 3 I had a post about an error in a William Rhoden column about the 1957 All-Star game.

Finally, the New York Times admitted the error and ran a correction. That link should only work Saturday and Sunday though.

The Sports of The Times column on July 3 about fan voting for baseball's All-Star teams referred incorrectly to events in 1957, when Cincinnati fans stuffed the ballot boxes. Seven, not eight, players for the Reds were voted to the National League's lineup. Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals, not Cincinnati's George Crowe, won the balloting as the starting first baseman.

Quixotic battle #324 is over!

My first thought when I saw the title was that Halle Berry had sent some legal papers to her ex-husband.

I haven't hung out with Polly since, like, 1998 or something. Honest.

Justice is a dish best served at room temperature.

The tbs people (Don Sutton, right?) just said that Chipper is one game shy of tying the alltime record for consecutive games with an extra-base hit.

My first thought when reading the title was Barry Bonds, but Bob is never that predictable.

8 Tarantino disagrees :)

From heck's heart, I stab at thee. For mild distaste's sake, I spit my last breath at thee.
