As a player...I did not have the drive to improve as I got older...but in LL I tossed a one-hitter on my Mom's birthday.

As a fan...maybe watching my son's games in the Coastal Plains League at the end of the summer. That is a brand of baseball us D3 parents don't get to see on a regular basis. The fact that my son did well was a plus.

As a parent...two stick in my mind:
1. No hitter with 17 K's as a 10 year old in LL
2. Junior year in HS...team came back from a 3 run deficit off a big-time pitcher to win the regionals in a 9-inning thriller.

As a son...going to Astros class A games with my dad most every night in the Florida State League in the early 70's...

As just a kid...getting to be BATBOY for a Spring Training for the Reds (1971) and the Cardinals (1972).
