News and UpdatesBy Jeff HavensMarch 24, 2014Leave a comment

When I was 8 years old, I absolutely loved baseball.  I watched it all the time, collected baseball cards like they were actually worth something, and I played entire baseball games by myself (and a bunch of ghost runners) in the lot behind my house because I didn’t have 17 friends to round out the…
