Saturday

I spent a summer with my daddy watching games, and he was an expert. He taught me the rules, about the players and stats. He won several trophies in baseball in high school.

I thought it was boring (like golf) before that. I'll forever be thankful for that time.

I used to have a signed ball from Willie Stargell that he got signed for me. But my evil ex-husband took it.

But that's okay. No one can steal my sweet memories. ⚾️ ❤️
