Yeah! The slow, lazy passage of inning after inning that lull one into
a half-sleep suddenly shattered by this breaking free of the baseball.
Things suddenly explode into split-second bursts of activity as
decisive moves are made, moves that are easily missed if one has really
been lulled into a stupor by the mundane passage of time that led up to
this moment of cataclysm. So easy to miss the moments that count.
Zen and the Art of Baseball... Yer gotter lubbit. :>
