This is to be a website dedicated to the greatest game ever created. I am speaking about, of course, the grand old game of baseball. from the earliest times of base and town ball (and hundreds of years prior to that), to the present age of performance-enhancers and expansion pitching. You will see on this site every sort of baseball reference, fact and figure, and obscure story not often covered on the big boy sites, and I will always work to make this among the most complete sources of player information and scouting reports anywhere!
I hope that you will find this to be among the most informative, well-researched sites devoted to The Game on the Web or elsewhere, as I am devoted and extraordinarily passionate about my work. Since I do it for free, I suppose I ought to get some kind of personal fulfillment out of it, don't you think?
Anyway, without furthur ado, I do hereby dedicate this blogsite to the service of the common public,
on this 9th day of March, in the Year of Our Lord, Two-Thousand and Five.
Let's Play Ball!

I talk about all things baseball: the past, present, and future of the game, the players, the fans, front office staff and part-time ushers, hobbyists, beat writers, photographers, broadcasters, etc. I may chat about other sports, as well. Who knows...I might talk about a favorite movie, here and there. While I'm at it, I also hang out at Whitaker Bank Ball Park, where I'm the photographer for the Lexington Legends, Low-A affiliate of the Kansas City Royals.
