I don't know who's giving that big hug to Falu - I think it's David Lough. Which, awwww.

How to dress for an April game in Omaha: a PSA in the style of a blatantly obvious Lifehacker post

Sometimes, Lifehacker is useful. Other times, its staff members provide us with painfully obvious advice couched as a genius new tip. In my offseason boredom, I’ve decided to bring you some advice in the style of the latter. When you watch a Spring Training game, or attend one, you notice that a typical fan outfit …
