I grew up learning baseball at my grandmother's knee. She was a big fan of the Philadelphia Phillies in the 1970s and 1980s -- the era of Schmidt, Shake&Bake McBride, The Tugger. Good thing. Eddie is the biggest baseball fan. I can follow the game and the teams with him, go to games, and thoroughly enjoy myself. Now that's a really good thing, because we have two little Phillie Phanatics of our own.
I lived in the shadow of Veterans Stadium as a child, and now my boys live walking distance from Citizens Bank Park. And, for World Series Championship parades, there's no place like home.
