KevinWhat a great picture - Thanks for sharing!
My first game was at the age of 6 at old Cleveland Stadium in 1967. I don't remember a whole lot but I do recall the Tribe got hammered by the Senators and the game included a home run by Frank Howard.
My earliest memory as a fan is from early in the 1974 season in watching the games on TV when Hank Aaron broke and Babe Ruth's record. Recall my father (who grew up watching Ruth) saying that Aaron was not nearly the ball player that Ruth. Funny thing is that I feel the same way about Hank Aaron now - I don't think that Barry Bonds is nearly the player that Aaron was. Some things never change I guess.
