  The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y., is where the history of the game is preserved and honored. The Hall of Fame was built in Cooperstown based on a claim that Abner Doubleday invented the game in 1839 in a Cooperstown cow pasture. That story is now considered a myth.

  During this very hot weather, try to water vegetable gardens, fruit trees and landscape shrubbery — including roses — in the evening so moisture has a better chance to seep into the ground during the cool of the night rather than evaporate.
  But try to prevent water from spraying directly onto the foliage of roses or squash plants in the evening, since that could promote powdery mildew.

  Ideally, lawns should be watered every three days for 20 minutes in
