Do you do any baseball tributes?

I had a great idea to name my firstborn Seven to honor The Mick, but some jerk used the name for his kid first.

Had my daughter been born a boy, her name would have been Mickey, by mutual agreement between my wife & I.

When I play Powerball & MegaMillions I use Yankee retired #'s & a combination of #'s pertaining to Mantle.

I have passwords & ID's in some safe instances that also honor #7.

PS---I live in RI & have been a Red Sox fan since 1980.

It is also a tiny town in WNY that is the home of Jimmy Greengrass.

Ever since the lotto was invented I played every # I wore since youth baseball till I quit playing. 14,17,22,27,32,36. Don't play the lotto but still remember the #'s.

I had a friend that named their kid "ESPN" pronounced "Es-pen". Both husband and wife watched a lot of baseball.....presumably other sports as well.

Oh, and on or around September 23rd of most years it seems like someone ont his forum usually gives tribute to Merkle for his "play".
