LAKELAND, Fla. — There is sunshine somewhere, I can confirm. There is also baseball.
This winter has been so cloudy, so gray, so cold — the Detroit Tigers even postponed TigerFest — that finding a way down here was more of a need than a want.
People apparently used to ask Rogers Hornsby what he did in winter when there was no baseball.
“I’ll tell you what I do,” Hornsby would say.
