SportsFilter: The Wednesday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

Muirfield has relented and now joins Royal Troon, St. Andrews and other historic UK courses in deciding to admit women as members.

No Condi Rice green jacket express lane for would-be Muirfield women, though. The membership waiting list is still two years, gender regardless.

Nothing to do but get in line and wait for a number of old codgers to be wheeled in and out of church on a dark purple gurney.

Celebrating before you finish making the play?

That's a-Baez-ing!

Side note:

Nelson Cruz, what the hell were you thinking? Did you forget that you are NOT a base stealer? I'm hoping that was some sort of blown hit-and-run play, but I doubt it with Adrian Beltre at the dish with two outs and down by two runs. But why steal there with Yadier Molina behind the plate?
