...demonstrated by Exhibit A, California is anyone’s game. With a population that is largely transplant, allegiances are fickle (in the interest of full disclosure, my allegiance will always be with the Braves, as I am a native of the South, but there’s always room for two). Therefore I lay myself before you, oh mighty Golden State. You decide my baseball fan destiny...
