Message: [QUOTE="RichZ, post: 3458690, member: 534"] One. I was never a baseball fan, but my Dad and his best friend were. In the fifties, they would often take my "cousin" Joey, my older brother, and me to minor league ballgames in Bridgeport. On one occasion, when I was 9, they took the three of us to a game at the Polo Grounds. I remember nothing of the game other than how brightly the field was lit, and how tiny the players looked from our seats way up in the stands. And my father explaining that we had great seats, because we were closest to 1st base -- "the busiest spot on the field." I guess he meant other than home plate and the pitcher's mound. [/QUOTE]
