This is a picture from my father's flickr site. Hiroko and Ren were in Japan for Hiroko's father's funeral, and my parents visited me for the weekend. so we all got to go to the game for Father's Day.

It was the only game I saw this year. I was excited to see Rich Hill for the first time (and Maddux pitching in Wrigley again), but he had one of his worst outings and the Cubs fell to San Diego.

Pictured here is the three of us, with the ghost of Harry Caray about to beat my father with his microphone. I've blogged about the statue before.

By the way, Go Cubs Go!

My baby just wanted to let you know: don't worry, the Cubs are going to win it.

Good Morning America, How Are You?

This blog has suddenly seen a huge burst of hits over the last week, from people googling Steve Goodman, and ending up at my old post about him.

There's a recent biography about Goodman out, but mostly I think it's probably Cubs fans wondering about "Go Cubs Go", Goodman's song that's getting a lot of airplay as the Cubs prepare to in the division. (something I'm pretty excited about)

So I thought I'd just say hello to anyone who checks out my blog. Hi, world, and thanks for finally making my blog quasi-popular for a week or two. It's nice to know somebody besides my parents saw this for once.

Obviously I'm not really updating anymore, but if you happen to want to see some really cute baby pictures, check out my daughter's blog.
