His left foot is pointed directly toward first, planted on the ground a good full step away from his right foot. It looked like the setup of a dance move or something. Oh, and for no reason at all, he takes his cap off and sticks it in his back pocket, leaving his nearly bald head for all the world to see.

Lisle, IL must be a wild place

Except that this didn't happen in Lisle. It was the quiet town of Glen Ellyn.

People that do not live around here have a hard time realizing you might live in a town, but never work a single game there.

I know. The only games I do in town are the Du Page Dragons of the CICL (Central Illinois Collegiate League), which, BTW, is expanding next year with the addition of a new northern area team. Cool.
