NPR’s Monkey See blog recently published an interview with Ken Burns, discussing the documentarian’s latest endeavor, The Tenth Inning.

The interview itself is grand, but one particular piece of it, somewhere in the middle, was of particular interest:

Interviewer: I was just reading The Baseball Codes –

Burns: Right, oh, isn’t that great?

Interviewer: —which I absolutely loved.

Burns: I loved that.

Bring on the weekend and the playoffs. I’m pretty well good to go.
