Baseball is dying –
The evidence mounts: “
They are Boston's tired, its weary, its bored, its huddled masses already yearning for November. They are the legal aliens of Red Sox Nation: longtime New Englanders who, for reasons of accident, genetics, or fate, couldn't care less about Boston's baseball fortunes.” Base-what?

Your most poignant squall ever.
That's an impressive "one local resident said..." type find! How validating! Of what possible importance are such esoteric data as historic profit margins, all-time attendance heights, merchandising, viewership totals, international interest, a $1 billion fantasy baseball industry... when countered with "retired software developer Bruce Knobe of Cambridge"?
So the Boston area has diminished interest in baseball; is that the premise you're hitching your weird little dream to, this week?
To be perfectly honest, that first sentence was all I read of the entire article.
It was just catnip to me! Forgive me for my reflexive nature.
Johnny Damon scored twice as the Yankees won their home opener. (In case anyone was wondering.)
