Sigrid and our daughter Michelle are attending Game 1 of the WNBA best of five semifinal playoffs between the Connecticut Sun and the Los Angeles Sparks.
My son, Patrick, and I are at the Saint Patrick's Cathedral of Major League Baseball, Yankee Stadium, as the Bronx Bombers begin their final homestand of the regular season against the Los Angeles Angels (of Anaheim).
I don't know if the Kenny women are taking a peach basket to the game but I'm giving serious thought to bringing my mitt.
