Pitchers and catchers reported to Spring Training some time ago, and the teams are edging toward their first exhibition games. I’m not the fan of big league ball that I used to be, but the essential game, the look and feel of it, the smell of it … oh, perfection, oh, youth, oh, summer.
“People ask me what I do in the winter when there’s no baseball. I’ll
tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.”
Hey, I felt the same way … when I was 12.
The cool flag is from Tom Shieber’s great blog.
