A moment worth remembering. But it is part of the Supreme Court's history how?

If we're to believe Blackman, EVERYTHING is Supreme court history.

I don't remember when these things started, but we must be coming up on the one year anniversary soon.

Today in Supreme Court history:

May 18, 2012: The Cubs' Kerry Wood strikes out Dayan Viciedo of the White Sox to end his career and is hugged by his young son as the Wrigley Field crowd gives him a standing ovation.

The connection to S.Ct.? Wood v. Georgia (1962)!! (It's related . . . somehow.)
