General Info
The purpose of this magazine is to bring back the old days when I was a young boy and the local newspaper printed game reports for all local baseball games. Sadly, today that is not the case. I fondly remember the write-ups where my name was mentioned for something that I had done during the game, and in fact, I cut all of those articles out and still look at them from time to time. Hopefully you and your children will enjoy reading this magazine as much as we enjoy putting it together.
See you at the game!!!.
