I love baseball. My dad and grandfather took me to my first Baltimore Orioles game at a very young age. Couldn't have been older than 3. Of course, my team hasn't been so good in recent years, but I'm still a fan that holds out hope for the future. 😉
Twice a year my parents would take us to see Cubs games. It was a trip we always looked forward to -- an afternoon in the sun at Wrigley Field, a nice dinner at an ethnic restaurant in Chicago. Glenn Beckert was my favorite Cubs player.
I've played both. I played baseball throughout my young life, and softball many times in camp, and, as most who know me are aware, I'm a huge major league baseball fan, with the Atlanta Braves being my favorite team. This postseason, however, I'm strongly rooting for the Phillies.
