I went to Comiskey my first time when I was 5, still remember it in detail.

The first sports autograph I ever got was of ChiSox 3B/OF Pete Ward, during BP in Yankee Stadium in about 1965. I remember it. (I also caught a baseball in Shea hit by then SF Giant Steve Whittaker.

How does this asshat not remember the name of ONE Sox player he liked?

Gee whiz, I went to Atlanta Crackers games as a very young girl with my grandfather (who played baseball for GA Tech back in the teens), then the Braves after they came to town.

I followed the Yankees while I was in college in NJ.

I'm not a die-hard baseball fan, even though my office mate taught me to keep a box score and I think the DH rule is the work of the devil. But I can name a few Crackers players even though I was less than 10 years old at the time (Montag (who hit the longest home run in history - all the way to New Orleans - in a passing coal car), Mathews, McCarver), a good number of Braves, and if I sat and thought for a minute I could give you the whole infield of the Yankees for any year between 1973 and 1977.

Obama is a poseur and a bald face liar.

I hope his stepping on the foul line comes back to haunt him big time.
