Boulder Little League, Billings, MT. T-Ball. I played P/1B which should tell you something about my t-ball skills back in the day. |
One of the best memories I have during the time I was sick was going to my first Major League Baseball game in Seattle. As a young kid I liked the New York Yankees. They were good in the late '70's and early 80's, so I was on the bandwagon. I was also a Reggie Jackson fan as he hit a lot of home runs. Through some family connections to MLB scouts, I was able to get a baseball signed by the 1981 Yankees when we went to see them play the Mariners in May of 1981. Jackson hit a home run during the series and for a brief couple days we put Cancer behind us and enjoyed life.
