In the early days, both the kids, the wife, and myself were all at the ballpark at the same time, though never on the same fields. We would all pile into one vehicle and basically make a night(or day) of it. Now that the kids are grown, the wife is still happy to see me get out and run around a ballfield three, four and sometimes even six nights a week. She knows that for me it is fun, and provides a chance for me to unwind. (Believe it or not.)
Plus, it gives us each a healthy amount of time to ourselves to persue our own interests. She knows that if something important comes up that she really wants us to do together, that all she need do is ask. If I am assigned for games on that particular night, rest assured that I will find somebody to cover for me.
Incidentally, I like this idea Pete.
