Your ace could get injured. Your golden glover could err. Your team could sit through a rain delay. Your manager could get ejected. Your bench must be broad and deep enough to overcome.

Posted: March 23, 2021 Filed under: Quote of the day | Tags: Baseball, Major League Baseball, MLB, quotes, sports, Three Finger Brown 2 CommentsDad played with me a great deal, as dads should do, and our chief sport was baseball. He bought me a hardball when I was three years old, and he used to sit in a rocker on the front porch while I sat on the grass in the yard, and we’d play catch by the hour.
