Any fans of the old ball game here? I have to say, that of all the sports, i follow this one the closest. Since the season is so far away, how about some favourite teams and/or some favourite baseball moments.
Let me preface this by saying I was born and raised in the Bronx. My favourite team is without a doubt the New York Mets. Man, what a roller-coaster the playoffs were, particularly the NLCS. I saw game seven in my dorm's common room with a bunch of people. That top of the ninth home run absolutely crushed me. One of my favorite baseball moments, that i was alive for was the mets making the world series. I became a fan in 2000 and saw the team blossom and make the play-offs. Man, Al Leiter, Mike Piazza, Eduardo Alfonso, John Olerud, etc. What a team. Hopefully the new mets have what it takes to make it back. Last year they definitely did. Let's see how they retool in the off-season in order to make a run.
