I was lucky to have a Father who played, loved, and taught the game with passion. Here are my top 3:<br /><br />1-As a kid, I remember so many of my games, tournaments in upstate NY with teammates like Matt Morris and other future professional players. But, as a player, I remember that my Father would come home from work every night, catch me and then throw BP. I was very lucky.<br /><br />2- As a coach, I had the pleasure of coaching some really good and skilled HS teams. But one team in particular comes to mind when I think about coaching. I took the coaching job at my middle school after coaching JV and Varsity for 8 years. The Middle School team hadn't won a game the year before. We won exactly one game that first year. That feeling of watching the kids celebrate beating the 1st place team is something that still makes me smile.<br /><br />3- As a fan, I remember watching Charlie Hayes catch the final out of the 1996 World Series. It was my first World Series title as a Yankees fan (I was only three in 1978). But, my favorite memory was sitting in the stands at Yankee Stadium with my brother. We got there for BP, sat down, and didn't get up until the 7th inning stretch. It was one of the few times where we talked for hours. Very special.<br /><br />Thanks Joel, for this question. Sorry I couldn't twitter this, but your question inspired such great memories.

It was amazing to the see the eyes of the children who had never been to a game look in amazement of the game and stadium, as well as be taught by the kids that have been to a game about what to do and how to act. What a great American cultural event. Ask me about the Japanese baseball game I saw this summer. <br /> <br /><br />See you soonMatt Geigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13078466779951525175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820860906879388954.post-11447496306666218452009-07-21T20:47:40.867-07:002009-07-21T20:47:40.867-07:00@Buzlghtyear I remember my first time in Fenway ...@Buzlghtyear I remember my first time in Fenway Park as a kid, but it is definitly being at Miller Park when the Brewers made the Wildcard and playoffs.<br /><br />Madison, WIMark Bridgeman Madison, WIhttp://www.twitter.com/buzlghtyearnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820860906879388954.post-15462765451780461712009-07-21T20:45:47.114-07:002009-07-21T20:45:47.114-07:00@amandax23 Cool site!
