Last month I was one of the official scorekeepers for our local Little League All-Stars tournaments--district and sectional. We had the LLWS crew at two of the sectional games, as they are asked to work together prior to Williamsport to keep in practice. Of all the gin joints, they chose Santa Barbara to hone their craft... Jaime Perez happened to be the plate umpire for one of the games, but no controversies. He was a pleasure to work with.
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
