It's Dad's wishful thinking. Is it any wonder how some LL kids bat .800 when Dad has the book?

As for scorekeeping, I learned the craft from a woman in Candlestick Park, many years ago. She was quite good, and often disagreed with the official at the park, with good reason. I've never seen so many folks with scorebooks than in Candlestick. It's quite an art, and everyone had their own style. I got a good education, and appreciation for the game in that old meat locker of a park. I won't miss the location, but I do miss the fans, as they were very baseball savvy. Unlike Petco, that has to have the dumbest fans, on average, in MLB.
