My earliest memories of baseball are eating sunflower seeds in our front yard with the (grown up) next door neighbor listening to the Astros on the radio. It must have been about 1967......those were great days....right after that I started little league and remember learning to catch pop ups. Our coach, on the first day of the season, told us to line up the ball on our forehead when catching it...You know the next thing.....I got hit right on the forehead with the pop up after missing the ball....but in the end it works and that is the way I teach youngsters today...
