...Lowdown: When confronted with massive challenges - and forming a "hemispheric partnership" certainly qualifies - it helps to frame prescribed policy changes in terms of sheer self-interest.

The lone touchdown of the day gave Harvard a 7-0 lead with 8:07 left in the first frame, a score that wouldn’t change for nearly 50 more minutes of play.“We knew that, based upon playing a great defense in Yale, they’ve had a lot of baseball scores. They hadn’t allowed teams they’d played...
