A huge weekend for baseball

Even though the friggin Yanks are sucking, I still enjoyed a trip a few weekends ago to the place where it all started. Cooperstown and the Baseball Hall of Fame.

To review the highlights, let's take a look at the videotape:

• The no-hit wall. Here, we've got every no-hitter, the pitcher's face, a blurb, and the ball. Very cool.
• Old-timer uniforms - All the top guys have had their uniforms donated - Ruth, Wagner, Gehrig, Musial, Robinson, and many others.
  
  
• Sections dedicated to other important areas of the sport - women, writers, announcers, movies, and desegregation.
  
  
• The Hall itself, where everyone inducted into the Hall has his plaque. Duh.

A worthwhile trip for any baseball or history buff. Just be sure to make hotel reservations in advance or else - you may find yourself in a place where the hottest spot in town is called Locomotion's. (and its a straight bar)
