Give credit to blog reader Sam Gerros, a Chicago native who now lives in Belleville, near St. Louis, and who e-mailed me this morning:
I got a call from a friend last night asking me if I wanted to go to the game today. He had two extra tickets five rows behind the Cubs dugout. What was I supposed to say - I said yes, I'd take them. I'm bringing my youngest - he's eight. I'm wondering, what exactly is the technique for dropping the tomato piece on the scorecard. I might as well try it; it can't hurt, can it? The line-up needs help - desperately!
He's right, of course. I just e-mailed him instructions and I hope I got them to him before he left for the ballpark.
The Tomato Inning has great power. Watch for a big inning sometime today.
