| Lucky child who gets to sleep every night in their own personal Field of Dreams. |
| My favorite catcher of all time has to be Yogi Berra. Maybe there were better catchers, but Yogi's ability to communicate was his true strength. Who can forget lines like "It's déjà vu all over again" or "The games not over until it's over." |

Just because we're grown up and our room decor is more sophisticated doesn't mean we don't still enjoy the game. In fact, a few prized bats and other memorabilia, or ...
a framed portrait of a baseball great keep us forever young. How appropriate for a game that isn't tied to a clock and time.
