The schedule question always comes. And though the schedule doesn’t sound imminent, the question always comes harder once the basketballers put theirs out. So after 11 years, I figured it was worth doing this.

The Brakettes are in Henderson, Nev., playing softball against some of the best of the west. They drew the SoCal Hurricanes in this morning’s opener — pretty much as strong a matchup as you could get — and were a couple of outs away from winning when two solo homers beat ’em 4-3. They won their losers bracket opener to follow and could play two games late tonight. The Webcast will be here around 10 p.m.

And RIP, Sherman Hemsley.
