Baseball is an intimate sport. On television, during each at-bat, four times a game, the camera gets in very close to the athlete’s face and body for an extended period of time. Same with the pitcher. Thirty years after a player’s career is over, a backyard wiffle ball game will likely feature his mimicked batting stances and routines. Fans carry baseball images with them their whole life, and apparantly to the end, hoping to scatter their cremated ashes at a most familiar home plate.

Woody Allen, New York intellectual, has sat courtside with season tickets to the Knicks for over thirty years. He says he loves the drama and uncertainty of sports. One week you’re unbeatable, and the next week you get swept by the Devil Rays. Today the best team in the playoffs face-down the Atlanta Hawks, but you have to watch because they just might lose, and wouldn’t that be amazing to see. There are more important things out there, like interminable political elections, but men both high and low in life spend their time transfixed by pro sports.
