Baseball anyone?

I sort of follow the SF Giants. I don't plant in front of the TV for any sports team, but I will watch the world series if they are playing.

I pay attention to their record and as long as it's better than the Dodgers, I talk @#&$ to a fellow retiree.
 
When I was a boy the old AAA Louisville Colonels were the top farm club of the Red Sox, but I was primarily a Brooklyn fan. Now I follow the Reds, the parent club of our AAA Louisville Bats; but I have soft spots for the Red Sox and the hapless Cubs as well.

Baseball has always been my favorite game. Watching the Little League World Series is one of my very favorite things to do.
 
Another old Cardinal fan here. When I was a kid in S. Mississippi the nearest major league city to the deep south was in St. Louis and most of their games were broadcast on my local radio station almost every night.

Grow up listening to Stan the Man over the radio? You sir are blessed.
 
Grew up a Dodgers fan (west coast-too young for Brooklyn though my parents were original fans), though I was able to justify also liking the Mets since they were on the opposite coast lol. Had a great aunt that lived near Sandy Koufax for awhile in the LA area-thought that was pretty cool.

Since '93 it's Rockies all the way.
 
Been a Tiger's fan all my life. When I was a kid my dad would take me to some of the games back in the Al Kaline days.
 
Lets start with a Scripture passage to explain mine. Psalm 34:19. "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivereth them out of them all".
As I'm sure you can surmise, I'm a Cubs fan.:cool:
As the late Jack Brickhouse once said. "Any body can have a bad century".:D

Detroit Tigers. Up or down, win or lose, doesn't matter. They're the home team, always have been, always will be. Doesn't matter where my mail's delivered.
 
I am a NY Yankee fan but in general I really pay little attention to pro sports these days. There is too much drugs, wife beating and other **** that are in my view in appropriate.
I used to follow baseball and football very closely.
 
I didn't realize there was any sports other than baseball. my favorite team is whoever is playing the Dodgers

As (I think) George Will is quoted as saying: "In sports there are only 2 seasons - baseball season and the off season".

Been a Phillies phan all my life. Every couple years we visit Clearwater FL to catch some pre-season (and escape the cold weather.) I think
every team probably has one player that stands out with his work ethic, instinct and a quiet, humble demeanor - for the Phils, that would be Chase Utley.

Here's a shot that I took this year at a pre-season game (vs. Pirates):
