Baseball 1, Cricket 0

Sales of baseball bats are skyrocketing in London. Three observations:

↵1. The bats are aluminum (or, as it’s pronounced in British English, “lorry”), which must appall traditionalists.

↵2. While a bunch of baseball bats might add to riot-fueled turmoil, a five-hour nine-inning Red Sox-Yankees game called by Joe Buck in Turbo Reverence Mode would bring the energy down nicely.

↵3. Remember, lads: don’t swing for the fences if the mobile phone you want is on the outside part of the plate glass. Just throw your bat at it.
