When I was a kid I went to Shea a good number of times. I saw Pete Rose of the Reds extend his famous hitting streak. I watched the Yankees play there while their ballpark was under repair.

My Mom and Dad were from Queens, so my father was around when the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New York Giants played in the polo grounds. My Dad grew up with Herb Score, and they were pretty good friends. Sometime during m childhood my father took me to the press box (if that’s what it’s called) and introduced me to Herb Score while he was announcing for an Indian game.

My parents loved the city but moved north to raise a family and begin a new life.

I grew up a Yankee fan and still have a nice pile of baseball cards. I used to hate the Boston Red Sox but now I admire them greatly. They preserve their baseball heritage (Fenway Park), while New Yorker’s bulldoze historical landmarks into dust. I still can’t believe Yankee stadium is gone.
