Status: offline 		Happy Birthday! I just turned 41 this year (still feel 18) and grew up in the Finger Lakes of New York, where my favorite team was the legendary New York Yankees. I currently live in Reading, Pennsylvania, where I can mostly get Phillies games, and have become quite a watcher of them. That Raul Ibanez kicks some ass! I'll tell you, it was tough watching the Yankees-Phillies series this year as I didn't really know who to root for, as I barely know any of the current players for New York, being inundated with the World Champion Phillies!

As for our ages, I believe that many of us are in the 40-55 age range. We'll see.

Status: offline 		I'm 61, in 1956 (or so) I saw Mantle (on TV) hit a very very long home run to deep right center field in old Yankee Stadium. Then Yogi hit one off his shoe tops to right field in the next at bat in the same game. Made me a Yankee fan. Was a Yankee fan until the late 80's. I don't care for todays baseball. To many million dollar cry baby's. I prefer to play 50's & 60's. I do venture back into the 20's on occations.
Now all of you should feel better because you are not the oldest.

My Father's Day gift this year is a trip to the ballpark with my wife and 7 month old daughter. It will be my daughter's first ballgame - first of many, I hope. I'm looking forward to it.

Hi Dave,

Funny you mentioned that you will be taking your daughter to her first baseball game to see the RiverCats. My wife, daughter and I lived in Rocklin for about eight years (we have since moved back up north to Southwest Washington). My daughter's first baseball game was also the RiverCats, although she was about six at the time. Even stranger is that they were playing the Portland Beavers, who now she loves to go see.

Another Bucs fan? Cool. Have you been to PNC Park? I have yet to visit it, but it's on my "bucket list". My last Pirates game was in 1986.

I'll go with the BoSox, Cubbies, Dodgers (before and after the move), Braves and Cards. My heart even softened towards the damnyankees with Torre and Jeter.

Fascinating how the age range is skewed toward "older" (but not old ) players. And are there any females among us?

That's funny. Considering some of the posts in this thread, it is starting to look like a small world after all. I moved to California years ago from southeast Washington - Richland to be exact. I grew up a Mariners fan, but I lost touch after being away for so long and only getting to watch the A's and Giants on TV. I've tried and tried to take to the A's, but I just can't (what self-respecting Mariners fan could? ). Although, I have enjoyed watching the Giants the last couple seasons. The Bonds hype of years past turned me off to the Giants, but I like the new team. I actually thought they would do well this season, and so far they aren't making me look like an idiot - yet. Anyway, until I find my major league identity, I'll stick with the River Cats.

Status: offline 		Ok, I did NOT specify a fave minor-league team, so in "A" it's the West Virginia Power. They are now affiliated with the Pirates, which helps. Appalachian Power Park is just a few blocks away from where I work in downtown Charleston.

I used to go to old Watt Powell Park in Kanawha City (a few miles east of Charleston) and watch the Wheelers, who later became the Alley Cats. The Alley Cats moved to downtown and became the Power.
