Well if Her Majesty had taken GHWB to a cricket game, it would have been the same.

Son who has lived in Nova Scotia for four years says he is just beginning to get a sense of what is happening in cricket, but he will never stop watching baseball and is still a Rays fan. (This has not been their year, but that’s a separate issue.)

Not a Brit, but I believe they view baseball as a children’s version (rounders) of cricket. Both games are way too nuanced for the uninformed viewer to enjoy.

For those of you who have never watched cricket, imagine every pitch bouncing in the dirt for you to try and hit. And the pitcher getting to run towards you as he delivers the pitch.
