Stop  and  think  for  just  a  moment.  Reminisce  on  your  childhood,  on  your  pop.    From  late  night  batting  lessons  to  simply  playing  catch  in  the  backyard,  your  dad  was  there  coaching  you  the  whole  way.  Baseball  became  a  common  bond,  a  shared  interest  between  the  two  of  you.  Nothing  compared  to  that  feeling  of  accomplishment  when  you  made  your  dad  proud.    It  was  the  cheering  of  your  biggest  sideline-­‐fan  after  hitting  a  home  run.  It  was  that  celebratory  hug  given  when  making  the  last  out  in  the  bottom  of  the  9th.  It  was  the  collecting  and  trading  of  baseball  cards  over  the  years.  It  was  the  endless  conversations  of  admired  players  and  team  stats.  It  was  the  triumphant  feeling  you  got  after  watching  your  team  win.  Most  of  the  significant  memories  from  your  childhood  revolved  around  baseball.  It’s  time  to  pass  the  tradition  down.
