Sorry, no food picture today — though we did experience the glory that is the Waffle House, while also enjoying some fine pizza later on Tuesday (thanks for asking. The RandBall Better Half always finds it amusing that we like to tell her everything we had to eat in a given day). Instead, we bring you an image of a scorecard for Cherokee Golf Course in Louisville. We played a fine 9 holes with Rocket and Crentist (even shooting some video). You’ll notice a birdie 3 for us on the exceptionally short Par-4 fifth hole. We also almost birdied 9, which would have given us two birdies in a 7-over round of nine holes, which is not easy to do. Crentist fell apart on 7 when he Mickelsoned four shots from the same exact spot into a sloping green. Rocket fell apart the minute he took the bag out of the trunk.

Afterwards, we drove up to Indy and took in the first of our two Indianapolis Indians games. Fantastic ballpark, though Aaron Boone of Columbus — on a rehab assignment and now seen by us on consecutive nights in different cities — is probably getting a little unnerved by our presence. Best thing ever: Indy has a player named Ronny Paulino, whom we called (loudly) Ron Paul all night. Best thing yelled: “Pretend the ball is higher taxes.”

We made it to a establishment in the Broad Ripple neighborhood, where they catered to our whim to have the Twins/Yankees game shown, just in time to see Delmon Young’s 1.5 Schottie home run that tied the game. Unfortunately, we also saw the Yankees’ big blasts. Bullpen relief. Fast.

Today’s agenda: More bad golf, a daring day-night doubleheader in Indianapolis (2 p.m.) and Fort Wayne (7 p.m.) and, despite the protests of some, likely some Skyline Chili.
