I hadn't noticed until you pointed that out. Not like I really had a choice in the Little League matter, as that was the team they put me on. I wasn't much of a Phillies fan though I liked Mike Schmidt (after Reggie Jackson, probably my favorite opposing player) and Greg Luzinski (whose name endorsed my glove, which figures).

You can't tell me you're really going to be cheering for adult Jay to beat childhood Jay now are you?

Go National League!!!
