We have pretty much all have been infected with the "Baseball Bug", the question is how did you catch it? Was it through your son/daughter playing rec ball, did you acquire it from your parents or from when you played or watched as a child. I am interested in the background.
I played church ball when I was young, no real uniforms or coaching, just friendly games between churches. I didn't catch it there though. I happened to be at a friends house and he had to get ready for his rec. team game and I got invited to tag along. He had a full uniform, a real team with coaches, real field and fans (parents) cheering them on. That was it and I was exposed/infected to this lovely disease. Couldn't wait until the next spring to sign up. I think I must've thrown a baseball against the wellhouse a million times the next 14 years, easy! your story please.
