This week I talk a little about baseball in my life, how I really hope there is not a work stoppage this season, and how that is all connected to Arlington National Cemetery. There is a persistent myth that Union General Abner Doubleday invented baseball in upstate New York in the mid-19th century. Its a nice concise origin story but there is just one problem with it - it is completely made up. So how did Doubleday, who was a student at West Point at the time he supposedly came up with America's Pastime and never mentioned baseball once in the dozens and dozens of journals and other writings he left behind get connected to the game? Well, you'll have to listen to find out!
