Those are awfully big little leaguers ! To me little league is 8 - 10 years old.1979 or '80. Junedale Little League in Gary, Indiana. All-Star team. I can remember six other players names, but I remember every single one of them.

This may have been Senior League All Stars. 13, 14, 15. So this would have been 1980, '81, ,82. And everyone had the feathered hair.
(I'm the kid lower-middle with the bat.) Always the smallest kid on every team. The original 1 -Dog .
My mom was going through pictures, found it, and I'm going to go look for a little frame. My friend Matt has since passed away. Top Row Third from the left. He played third base.
I am probably the first fan ever to retire from the MLB as a fan or a Tigers fan. Some things they have done in recent days (firing ) for political correctness I can no longer be a fan of a team that will ruin one person's life because of a word (Monkey) that was taken out of context. I can no longer listen to the game and forget the rest of the world, so I quit.
I never pitched for that team. There were some Division 1 men on that team. But I played the crap out of second base. Batted lead off and clean up. Gilbert Sanchez is the guy sitting on my right. He was one hell of a shortstop. We did everything together. He knew me and I knew him.

Man, baseball has to come before politics
. But not football. But I hear you loud and clear. Dude,I never do any shrinking around here, but we are sympatico, American League Central. I'm listening.
Vote Washington Nationals Trea Turner to the all star Star game in the final vote.

Does this thread morph to football in the fall/winter? I'm not enough of a baseball fan to add to any meaningful discussion, but college football I can talk intelligently about.
Sure. Any sports are fine. I talked Washington Capitals hockey during the Stanley Cup tournament.
