More info about baseball!

Some people thought it was weird that my dad likes soooo many teams, but let me explain them to you!




So the Oakland A's are from California. When he was growing up they were his little brother's favorite team, but Dad did not like them because of 2 players, the BASH brothers. But then in 2006 while they were playing the Angels in the playoffs he decided they were actually pretty good. Fortunately for them (and NOT me) their Spring Training facility is just 3 miles from our house, so they got to go see them a lot this year! (but I didn't get to go!)




This hat is for the Minnesota Twins. Dad lived in Burnsville Minnesota for a couple of years when he was younger and he liked their player called Kirby Puckett. Dang, I like him too, that is one cool name!! Our grandpa always talked about a Twins player named Harmon Killebrew and that is one funny name also. His grandma and uncle live in Minnesota so that is why he likes them still!




Dad was actually born in Palatine Illinois so that is why he likes the Cubs. He liked a player named Shawn Dunston and one named Ryn Sandberg. I think he likes them because he likes the band called Chicago too!




Finally, the most important team, MY NEW YORK YANKEES!! Dad has never even BEEN to New York, but this is his most favorite team and mine too! He has liked them since he was a little kid, since Don Mattingly started playing for them.


Check out his moustache! It makes me so jealous that I can't grow something like that!

Some dogs and people asked why we don't have a Pittsburgh Pirates hat since my Mom is from there, well, as our buddy Sherman said, the Pirates suck. It is true, they are just pretty terrible.

So now you know why we like all of those teams and you know which is the most important...GO YANKEES!
