By Patrick Reusse, Star Tribune Last update: August 02, 2007 – 12:06 AM Various teams from a Hispanic baseball league for adults had been spotted playing Sunday afternoon games at Bassett Creek Park. This was mentioned to the boss in the Star Tribune's sports department. It was deemed worthy of a story to be accompanied by photos.

We were ready to have the big play on the sports cover on Tuesday. And then came Monday -- first with the reports that the Timberwolves were close to trading Kevin Garnett to Boston, then that NFL coaching legend Bill Walsh had died, and finally that the Twins had traded veteran second baseman Luis Castillo to the Mets for a pair of minor leaguers of questionable prospect status.
