I have an older son, Josh, and growing up, he just didn't care that much for baseball. And that was fine. But Chaddie, he always wanted to go to the ballpark. He just kind of took to it right away.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Baseball life is a tough life on the family.
My little brothers loved baseball. I'm not as big on that as basketball or football, but I understand the game.
My dad and all my family were into baseball. His brothers, my mom's brothers, my mom's father. Baseball was just always a part of our family.
I had a great time with baseball growing up. I was lucky to grow up with it and to learn.
Kids are our future, and we hope baseball has given them some idea of what it is to live together and how we can get along, whether you be black or white.
The sentimentality of baseball is very deeply rooted in the American baseball fan. It is the one sport that is transmitted from fathers to sons.
Finally, for all of us but a lucky few, the dream of playing big-time baseball is relinquished so we can get on with grown-up things.
Kids don't learn the fundamentals of baseball at the games anymore.
Baseball was made for kids, and grown-ups only screw it up.
We're all still kids when it comes to baseball.
