How easy it is that the right woman breaks through barriers, thoughts, beliefs, and blind spots a man creates for himself. I hope you continue this story, Chip.
A baseball game is the perfect setting for this story. The deliberate pace, the rise and ebb of tension, the time to reflect, the communal excitement. The couple on this somewhat casual first date seem to reflect this deliberate pace and I would bet that this relationship continues. They seem to enjoy exploring each others thoughts and beliefs and that makes for an intriguing relationship--and story.

I'm sensing a mandate!

I enjoyed your story Chip, it kept my interest to the the end. It made me curious what the future has in store for Carl and Laura.
I agree with what you said about the slower pace of baseball. There is nothing better than than a lazy afternoon at the ballpark.
I wrote the story, just to be a story. But I also wonder what becomes of this relationship. This could end up being a novel.
Baseball is a unique sport. There is occasional intense action surrounded by tranquility.
