This is just getting too Soylent Green-esque for me. Eek.
As you will recall, we asked our readers on July 25 to help our friend Basil achieve the honor due him. We still don’t know if there will be a “Basil Night” at the Columbus Catfish stadium, but we know at least one good thing has come of the effort.
We won a baseball, autographed by the entire Catfish roster! (When I saw “Ivan DeJesus” on the roster, I got pretty excited. But this one was born in 1987.)
We also earned free admission and refreshments at the game on Aug. 25, but sadly cannot attend. But a baseball! Yay!
