Played a lot of ball as a kid like you, Laz. Then when my son was old enough, I coached youth baseball up until his high school ball and American Legion. I loved every bit of it as much as he did.
Our layout would be out of season for baseball, so no ball field. Not much ball is played in the snow.

If I built the baseball field from when I was young all the neighborhood kids would have to be fighting.

We played baseball every Saturday at the school baseball field (before the days of fencing in) till supper time. But rarely had enough for 2 teams, so we played "peggy move up". Wonder if any might remember how that was played?

Love the baseball fields. We played wiffle ball out in the street.
And Joe, mine would need kids fighting as well. Clearly, though, I was always right.

If I built the baseball field from when I was young all the neighborhood kids would have to be fighting. Sounds like our yard growing up. When my parents bought the house, they bought the vacant lot next door. Since we were the only house on the block with an empty lot, well you guessed it, it became the de facto ball field for the neighborhood. Baseball, football, etc. Though my dad did get tired of all the yelling and screaming.

I was pretty bad at sports. If I saw they were choosing sides I would walk away. I was a decent shortstop and I could throw hard, but not always straight. I was a musician I didn't care about sports.

Pete, Nice job on that field and particularly the Score Board. Certainly dates your layout back to the fifties with the NY Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers.
