Just a quick detour from our normal political fare here and a moment of personal privilege.
I just wanted to share this great story from my dad, who was born, raised, and lives in Michigan, regarding his time playing baseball for the Navy here in Norfolk.
A blog called, “Baseball by the Letters [1]“, has been interviewing my dad and offers up this cool story of when my dad was playing at Fort Eustis in 1953 against Willie Mays [2].
Also, for interested baseball and especially Detroit Tigers’ fans, you should check out my dad’s blog [3] for more of these stories and commentary on the game.
