SEATTLE — It’s a beautiful morning on Puget Sound. A slight marine layer of haze is leisurely giving way to brilliant sunshine. The breeze, however, isn’t going anywhere. It is a constant and pleasant companion.
Perfect for a youth baseball tournament like the Commissioner’s Cup, pitting teams from MLB Urban Youth academies, including the one from West Dallas, against one another. Or families going to free outdoor baseball clinics conducted by local legends like Edgar Martinez and “King” Felix Hernandez. Or for watching the next generation of baseball’s talent compete in the Futures Game, the biggest on-field activity of the festival leading up to the All-Star Game.
So, why in the world is everybody fixated on the heat?
