Look who’s still playing baseball: It’s (almost) 41-year-old Lew Ford – Minneapolis Star Tribune
Many Twins fans have fond memories of Lew Ford, the former Twins outfielder who was endearing to many for his cerebral approach to baseball — and the fact that he was one hit away from being a .300 hitter during the team’s 2004 season when it won the American League Central title. Ford hasn’t been with the Twins since 2007, and has had only a handful of major league at-bats…

Timing is everything at the NBC, yet time means little to baseball … – Wichita Eagle
Of all the statistics and numbers used in baseball, the ones associated with time have the least relevancy. The scoreboard at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium doesn’t have a space for such numbers. It shows runs, hits and errors. It makes space for the inning-by-inning score below the balls, strikes and out indicator and even finds room to display the speed of each pitch thrown. But there’s no room for a clock. And…
