Bob Gibson my teacher

I don’t always plan on writing about baseball, but I was thinking, thank goodness for baseball. I wonder if I would have read as early as I did if it wasn’t for baseball. I wanted to know what was up with the Cardinals. The Peoria Journal Star & Sports Illustrated and Baseball Digest were my lifeline. What little math I understand comes from the box score. I had to learn how to compute ERAs, Batting averages and Whips. Look it up, I did and learned. Thanks Bob Gibson, Lou Brock & Hank Aaron for my education!

  1. James,
    Can you set up a conference with me so we can chat about the goal/purpose of this blog. I don't want you to lose your original focus.

    Remember, you must have at least 250 words for full credit.
