We are likely mere minutes from embarking on what should be a most excellent, even if somewhat abbreviated, Great Baseball Road Trip. When the schedule originally came out, we thought the idea of a Milwaukee-St. Louis-K.C. swing to see the Twins in all spots would be grand. But things get more complicated as our travel party gets older. Of the four other regulars on this trip, one is driving his wife cross-country for a job opportunity; one is buying a house and getting married this summer; one is in dental school; and one has a son under a year old. Us? Well, we decided it also might not be good to be in Kansas City eating bbq and watching baseball during our second wedding anniversary. So, it’s a short jaunt — just to Milwaukee and back, starting today and coming back after Thursday’s afternoon game — with talk of maybe another weekend trip in August to include some of the guys who can’t make it to Milwaukee. But hey: we all adapt and have fun regardless of what the schedule throws at us.

Especially if it involves a little Monday action at the U.S. Open.

Make up the rules as you go along. Diddy is on his way. It’s time to do this thing.
