  Omaha 2010.  The night before, JustBaseball told me it would feel like my hair was on fire if he got in the game.   Boy, was that ever true.

DH Omaha 02

MTH, just noticed our boys share the same number and mascot. Pretty funny. And by the way, I felt way more than my hair on fire when mine was in that spot last June!!  I couldn’t breath. Haha

Over 2 million sold.

Or something like that. This is a picture of my dream team, the one based in our neighborhood. I got cut but was picked up by a team in another neighborhood that was sponsored by a small delicatessen/convenience store. It didn't have quite the cachet of McDonald's back then. This was my younger brother's team. He is standing on the right, in front of the coach. It is probably 1966 or '67.

You definitely win the “Throwback Award.”

Can anyone top ‘66/67? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

IMG_0949I found this photo among my grandmother's things recently, although she has been gone for 30 years.  My step-grandfather loved baseball, especially the Detroit Tigers.  I like to think he is in the picture somewhere.

Wow!

My dad was an avid photographer, and documented many of his experiences in WWII.  He was 82nd Airborne, so the old photo album tells quite a story.  Anyways, - not a picture of him, but a photo he took of the fellas playing a baseball game in Vittel, northeastern France, after the liberation of Europe and prior to transferring to Marseilles to return home.IMG_1597
