The NWS is reporting a current temperature under cloudy/rainy/snowy skies of 37°, although with a slight breeze out of the southeast @ four mph., it feels more like 33°. Definitely not a seasonal temperature and that's why we have that mix of snow and rain falling from the sky outside my WW.
The NWS is also reporting a current Barometric Pressure of 30.19" of Hg and rising, while my own DTWS is displaying 29.56" of Hg and steady.
The sun will rise later today @ 6:47 a.m., and set much later @ 8:38 p.m.
We traveled to the north on Sunday afternoon to visit Marsh Field in Muskegon, MI, the home of the Muskegon Clippers baseball team.
Given to a private organization several years ago by the City of Muskegon, Marsh Field is a beautiful ballpark. |
Soon, this Field of Dreams, will be hosting the Muskegon Clippers for baseball action. |
The Clippers play in the Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League. |
Although the field is small, it is well maintained, and the clippers have numerous sponsors. |
We hope to see several games this year, as a way to enjoy baseball without going to Detroit, Grand Rapids, or other baseball cities. The cost is lower, and baseball is baseball. As we know, "Baseball is Life!"
Elsewhere in the news, I had yet another P/T session yesterday and was given some additional exercises to perform at home to add to the strength in my knees/legs. I'm five weeks out on my latest sojourn into my new knees.
We have been ear-reading, cross-stitching, crossword solving, print-reading, and watching the time get away from us. Mary and Ginger are walking more every day, but today may be a non-walking day due to the inclement weather.
In other sports news, the Cubs are treading water in the NL Central, with a record of 12 - 9, having just dropped three out of four to the LA Dodgers at Wrigley. The Cubs are home tonight versus the 12 - 12 San Diego Padres for a game beginning @ 7:40 p.m. EDT, with 3 - 0 Justin Steele on the mound for the Cubs.
My beloved 12 - 12 Red Sox. I'm not sure what they are doing, as they are better than expected, but not good enough. They once again play the 15 - 7 Orioles in the AL East division, where the Tampa Bay Rays are the team to beat, with their record of 20 - 3. The Sox send 0 - 4 Cory Kluber to the hill tonight to face the Orioles, following last night's loss, 4 - 5 to the Orioles. LHP Chris Sale was awful last night, lasting just one and one-third innings and destroying the water cooler in the dugout as he left.
What the 8 - 13 Tigers are doing, with a record of 8 - 13, may be good enough for third place in a very weak AL Central Division, but they are not a good team. Yet, they defeated the 15 - 8 Milwaukee Brewers last night, 4 - 2. The Tigers are in action again tonight versus the Brewers when 1 - 3 Spencer Turnbull takes the ball for the Tigers.
Otherwise, we are just waiting for spring to permanently arrive, which it will, but as always, the weather in Michigan is up and down at this point in the season. Ciao.
