Re: Yankees/Red Sox baseball in London.

I enjoy baseball, played it (badly), prefer it to football, but found the London Series coverage unbearable to watch. That being said, I'd maybe pay to see the Cubs next year when they come over.

As for not many people hitting the ball, I prefer that. Games when the pitchers are dominant.

Larne's owners have been throwing money at the club. They are owned by the Purplebricks founders who are locals, multi-millionaires, and have big plans. It is an exciting opportunity for Mitchell. I'm told the club plans to be fully professional.

Southgate must think Gomez has deserved his call up, based on his 1 start (Barca 3-0) and five substitute appearances since returning - in which he came on in the 66th, 86th, 88th, 85th and 84th minutes.
