I used to be a decent baseball trivia guy, back when TP came out and I still had brain cells, back when the Jays were born...I thought the answer to "where was baseball born?" was "the Elysian Fields, Hoboken, NJ"

what I DO know is that baseball died yesterday (if you're a Jay fan) with a dribbler down the first base line in "Fenway Park, Boston, MA"

you gotta love those games that have minimal rules and you can explain to someone in 2 sentences...examples are soccer and tiddly winks
