What ever happened to the ball?

I put it in a box 'o junk in 1991 for safe keeping when I headed south.
I picked the box up in 2011 and it sits somewhere in my storage room... probably until I croak and Bairyn tosses it out.

The best major league baseball watching I experienced was at the late Dodgertown in Vero Beach, Florida.  It was a small stadium where you could really see and interact with the players.

A spring training trip to Tigertown in Lakeland is on my bucket list.

Old Tiger Stadium in Detroit was pretty decent for player interaction. Once yelled something cute at Ricky Henderson when he played for the A's and he gave me the finger. Hid it in his glove so Billy Martin wouldn't fine him.

May not be too long before we hear reports that Shohei Ohtani has a gambling problem...

At least the homeplate umpire didn't die on the field.

Too soon?
Eh, nevermind...

Speaking of deaths of homeplate umpires, Angel Hernandez must die...

Saw this fun fact...

Pete Rose could come back and go 750-for-750 and Tony Gwynn still would have a higher career batting average...
Eh, nevermind...
