FATHER’S DAY THOUGHT
Here is an article I published on time.com (time.com/4821335/fathers-day-children-father-essay): My sister is nine years older than me, and during most of our father’s life, she enjoyed a closer relationship with Dad than I did.

Molly took me to the ballgame yesterday. It was a very hot Sunday afternoon, and we had excellent seats, in the shade the whole game. The Yanks played well, with Hiroki Kuroda pitching seven scoreless innings. We did not hit much, but we did manage to nudge across one little run. As the game went …
