in a new york minute

anything can change.

here's kevin brown pitching at dodger stadium on his 2004 topps opening day card
complete with the mural of the infield of my youth behind him.  there are very few cards that show that particular mural, and i want them all.  that's why i picked up this next card
which shows kevin brown as a yankee pitching in dodger stadium, except that's a halfway decent photoshop job by topps.

the dodgers probably got more out of jeff weaver and yhency brazoban (plus a couple of minor league seasons from titans' back-up quarterback brandon weeden!) than the yankees got out of kevin brown overall, but it was the brown and the bronx bombers who actually advanced in the playoffs in 2004.  at least the dodgers got some 'lima time' that year.
