As of this writing, Babe Ruth and Barry Bonds are still tied for career home runs at 714 each. Bonds will soon be chasing Hank Aaron's record of 755.
I never liked baseball. I loved baseball! Only the Army taught me more about camaraderie, teamwork, and pushing my physical limits. For fifty years I have made the 'great American pastime' a large part of my life. Memories of watching the god-awful Phillies at Shibe Park, playing Little League, and seeing Stan "The Man" Musial's final game in person continue to make me smile.
I fear I will soon like baseball. And you know why.
