Watching the pitching and hitting on game day, my hair damp underneath my cap, I hear the melody of bats. Baseballs travel through space, full of voice. Full of ghosts and sense-sound fantasy. For a moment, a homer hangs in the air, then sails past the old-timers. Past the rookies. The stadium can barely contain their youth.
