The ABA isn ' t dead, it ' s alive and well and living at Water Works park. The red, white, and blue ball appears with springtime. Days that turn it around ™T 1 Those precious few days that can turn it all around. When you wake- up and feel good before you even remember why. That first day of spring when it breaks 70 degrees and it ' s dry enough you can lay in the grass. And there aren ' t even any bugs to bug The baseball home opener. Hot dogs really do taste better when you eat them at the diamond. If the game goes extra innings you might just get a sunburn. You will regret that burn later, but at the time . . . it feels so good. Gentlemen start your engines, back home again in Indiana, and the roar of the engines at the 2 2 mile oval start the Indiana summer in style.
