Where We Look At MLB's Charming Attempts To Revolutionize The Interweb ...

What could be cooler than a blog written by a couple of soldiers serving a year in Baghdad? We'll never know, because they're home now, traveling to every major league baseball park and writing about it.

Kevin and Sean (last names classified) have just seen a game at RFK in Washington D.C. — "then, in the third inning, I got hungry and decided to go get a pretzel" — and are now on their way to San Diego, filing this report: "We went out 166 in Virginia and then South on 181 to catch the 140 for the long haul."
