Good morning, I'm David Greene. In Fairbanks, Alaska this time of year, it stays light almost through the night. And there's an annual baseball tradition, the Midnight Sun Game - first pitch, 10:30 p.m. It's really a celebration of the solstice and all that daylight. But this year, things got awkward.

Organizers say, what would be the point? It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
