Take me out to the ball game!

"I think I was the best baseball player I ever saw." Willie Mays 1979.

"They throw the ball, I hit it. They hit the ball, I catch it." Willie Mays


Steve and his roommate, teammate and co-worker Greg. Eman and The Gav love to watch the games and of course play on the bleachers!

The littlest fans Eman, Katie, and Gavin

We love to go to Stevie's softball games and cheer him on. Eathan and Gavin love to chant to the batter on the opposite team. Stevie was on two teams this summer and fall and they both took 1st place - of course it is because Steve is on the team and makes all of the great fielding plays and usually hits 2 home runs a game!
