I love this. Baseball helped me get closer to my mother over the years. Her love for it sparked something in me, now we head to the Phillies opening day whenever we get the chance. Thank you for this!
Funnily enough, I just watched Moneyball for the first time this past weekend. The White Sox's losing streak last year makes me think about Billy's quote "I hate losing more than I like winning"...Maybe fans don't hate winning or losing. As the White Sox approached the largest losing streak in MLB history, fans were still cheering wildly. Maybe we just like having something to root for, something to connect ourselves to the team and the game. And what's more romantic than that?
Loved this! I grew up going to baseball games to watch my brother and cousins play and will always have a special place in my heart for the game. I love a good slow burn, so it makes sense why I love watching baseball and movies (!) too

I appreciate you taking the time to put a voiceover for the article! I don’t appreciate having ‘The Show’ stuck in my head the rest of the day >:(
