Still, atop Fattore’s list was HarbourCats baseball. Best hurry, though: Their last regular season game at Royal Athletic Park is Aug. 7. Jim Shortreed’s wish list: a return of the herring I mentioned in Sunday’s column. “You can walk from the legislature up along the Gorge Waterway, probably the most scenic walk in the entire known urban universe, but, alas, you can no longer watch herring run at the Craigflower Bridge. Last spring only five were caught and nothing of spawn was seen.”
