My love for baseball can be traced back as far back as age 7 for me, when I would pick up the Detroit News Sports page and just start reading. Growing up, learning the game, fun with statistics, and mostly the storytelling from the likes of George Kell and Al Kaline on television, and Ernie Harwell on my radio. My love for the Tigers has grown even more since I left the Detroit area in the spring of 2006, relocating to Minneapolis with my wife and 2 kids. Following the team from "Twins Territory" can be a bit of a challenge, but at the same time, interaction from the "enemy" is also great fun.
