BaseballParks.com cast the latest vote that dream matched reality in Huntington Park.
The Web site announced yesterday that it had chosen the home of the Clippers as its Ballpark of the Year over 11 other new or renovated facilities.

* Is the Ohio GOP thinking of dumping State Auditor Mary Taylor who is running for re-election? Dispatch:...Republicans are wondering what to do about Mary Taylor. As the GOP's only statewide officeholder, the auditor should have a boatload of cash for her re-election campaign next year.
But she raised only $107,900 last quarter and has only $144,281 in the bank, about half as much as her Democratic opponent, Hamilton County Commissioner David Pepper....
....Here's a solution being discussed in GOP circles: Make Taylor the running mate for probable gubernatorial nominee John R. Kasich of Westerville. Taylor would attract female voters and, hailing from the Akron area, she could help Kasich in voter-rich northeastern Ohio....
The Ohio GOP wants to dump their most visible female statewide office holder so she can stand behind their candidate for governor, John Kasich????!!!! How demeaning! No wonder Republicans can't get female voters when they treat their female office holders/candidates with such little respect. If the Ohio GOP has their way, they'll find one of their old white guys to replace Mary Taylor.
