GO BRAVES!!!!!!

(On a side note, I DO like seeing the pitchers ACTUALLY HAVE to HIT the ball too. The DH has, however, prolonged the careers of good hitters who lost their fielding and provided good pro careers for a few who could NAIL the ball, but couldn't catch a cold.)

I cheer for the Diamondbacks whenever i happen to see a game, but I don't get to watch tv very often anymore.

Braves fan.

Hey MacWage, remember;

Go Braves! and take the Falcons with you.

The times have certainly changed.

I miss the inlaws place at Mytle Beach, the Pelicans were a blast. Minor's are real baseball, no prima donnas to put up with. I also miss the Capital City Bombers in Columbia. Columbia's lost is Greenvilles gain.

I can actually remember going to see the Richmond team as a kid They were they were the Richmond Virginians back then, and were the Yankees AAA farm team. Remember Mel Stotlemeyer, I saw him pitch in Richmond. The highlight of the Virginians visits was seeing the comic umpire, Al shack umpire an exhibition, in which Satchel Page pitched. He must have been in his 60s or even 70s then, but "I got to see him".

So, are there any baseball fans, and what are your teams???

I am an Atlanta Braves fan. I am an ATL native and pulled from them even when they were HORRIBLE. I once pulled for Bob Horner, one of the most under-rated infielders in baseball history. I also rooted for the Murph (Dale Murphy, ole number 3). The 1991 season was truly MAGICAL and felt VERY much like in the movie "Major League."

Anyone else?

I'm another Braves fan, but I have been a fan since the days of Warren Spahn, Hank Arron, Eddie Matthews, and Lew Burdette. Being near Richmond, I follow the Richmond Braves also, and have seen some current and former Braves come through AAA Richmond. This includes Chipper Jones and Ryan Klesco. I do have a favorite AL team also. That is Boston, Baltimore, Chicago, and anyone else playing the Yankees.

Hugh baseball fan, thinking mans game. I am and will always be a fan of the Big Red Machine. But I am more in to the minors now.

My daughter has attended about half of all our home games over the last 6 years. Great for a dad to spend time with his girls. Too bad Kim (my wife) doesn't like baseball, cause the kids want o do a tour of National League (read: real baseball) fields this summer.

The only down side to having good minor league play is trying to follow the kids up. Too many teams to keep up with now.

Oh, and baseball is why I went looking for a casual kilt and I think I have the best, thanks W2F!
