Never knew how lucky I was as a kid in '87 and '91!

I was a Reds fan as a boy.  I lived so far away and eventually had to find a closer team to love.  I was lucky as well.  My mother took me to Wrigley to see Reds-Cubs games.  I got to see Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Tony Perez.  Some memorable Cubs as well like Fergie Jenkins, Bruce Sutter, Harry Caray of course.  Raised my daughter on Mauer, Morneau, Hunter,Santans, Liriano.

My sisters bro-inlaw was the pitching coach for the Diamondbacks, Angels, D-Rays until about a year ago.  He was a relief pitcher for the Angels for about four seasons.  Pitched against that '91 Twins team actually.  He coached with Joe Maddon for a decade in the Angel's minor league system.  That's how he got his MLB chance.    

I've always loved baseball.
