The Woman Who Saved Baseball

More great visual pitching from the White House for Sonia Sotomayor (new pics being released day-by-day):

She’s the woman who saved baseball, and what’s more all-American than that? (Not to say Red Sox fans might take exception to certain allegiances.) But then, the most telling element here? No, not the Tigers logo on top of the dugout. It’s the little blue-and-white alert sign (who said Rush Limbaugh?) opposite the nephews.
