Play Ball!

Hello, first of all, if your reading this-thanks! I wanted to start this blog to hopefully entertain myself and others with some of my great memories from the game of baseball of years past, but also to give views / thoughts on the game of baseball as a whole. 

To me it's the greatest game in the world. It's raw and pure- it can be played on any grass field, a big parking lot (don't slide!), indoors or outdoors. The needs of the game are also simple- bat, ball, bases, and a glove.

Ever since I was a kid, I was always around baseball. Bat-Boy, Playing baseball, watching baseball, collecting baseball cards, reading scores and stats in newspapers, and listening to my Dad tell stories of old Detroit Tiger players. I've stayed a fan of the game throughout the years (although sometimes straying to pursue adolescent conquests), and still think that MLB baseball is truly America's pastime.

I also think it is truly awesome that my family embraces the game almost as much as I do. We attend baseball games together, watch games on tv together, and talk about baseball all the time. I feel very proud of my son who is an also avid fan of baseball, at a time when media attention is clearly steered to other sports.

Anyways, that is all for now. Thank you for checking me out, and I look forward into diving into my own mind of baseball!
