This thread is just irresistible. My very earliest memories of baseball are the smell of hot dogs, beer and peanuts as we entered Edmonds Field in Sacramento in the early '50's along with the cracks of the bat amidst all of the chatter that came from the field as we made our way to our box seats on the third base side of home plate. Oh--I remember the players and many of the plays, but no matter how old I get, I will never forget the smells and sounds of the ballpark when I was just a very small boy.
