These are tough times if you are Chicago White Sox baseball fan. The team has been losing a lot over the past 6 or 7 years. Their national reputation pales next to their cross-town rival the Cubs. And for 2020? I'm not bullish the record will improve much either sports fans. Bumpy times on the South Side will probably continue.
But in the midst of all that losing, there is some serious winning. A silver lining. If you are lucky enough to have your company or a vendor or a really rich friend take you to the luxury suites at the White Sox ballpark Guaranteed Rate Park, there is a magical creature that appears during the game right outside your door. The Suite Sweets Cart, a desert cart of immense standards. Pies. Cakes. Brownies. Ice cream and sauces. A famed Chicago carrot cake. All there for your pleasure.
I had the opportunity to indulge. The Summer of Ballpark Pie Love. Strawberry Pie straight from the angel's buffet table in strawberry heaven. I know about City Pie and Country Pie (more on that another time) - but Ballpark Pie? Yet another reason to love baseball.
