BASEBALL GOT WHAT IT DIDN'T DEserve. Namely, baseball. A season that began with 48-year-old Pedro Borbon Sr. wheezing and falling off the mound as a replacement pitcher ended with a glorious World Series in which 27-year-old Pedro Borbon Jr. was warming up in the ninth inning for the world champion Atlanta Braves.

Calexico's mayor is Mexican American, as are most residents. Even on the university campus in Mexicali, says student-body president Pedro Ariel Mendivil, anti-American slogans are virtually unheard of. ``That's old-fashioned politics,'' he says, adding that he hopes to earn a master's degree in the U.S. to gain foreign experience.
