Your memory of your dad telling you the score with a note in the morning reminded me how I would run down the driveway every morning to grab the Washington Post to check all the box scores. What great memories, sitting down at the kitchen table and pulling the paper out of the plastic sleeve and flipping past the National, Metro and Style to the only section that matters to a 9-year-old: Sports. The only wrinkle: when my team played the dreaded Late Game!
Ha! The dreaded Late Game caused me such angst because of how it caused incomplete standings with 1/2-games that suggested no result as opposed to an unknown result. Fatty, that built character that the next generation will miss out on!
Minor League Baseball - ideal for kids. Early start times, cheaper tickets, and being close to the action/players. My kids and I love guessing who the "best" prospects are based just on our handful of trips per year. We got Devers. Did not get Dalbec. Hopefully, we'll see some of your Halls if the Baysox come to town.
We kind of missed out on Chavis. The last game we saw pre-pandemic featured a blown save by leading pitching prospect, Brian Mata. Based on our evidence, not going anywhere.

How did you guys feel about Chavis? I think there’s an entire industry that would like to know.
