Baseball And Baseball: An Introduction To Baseball

I was introduced to baseball by my dad, Mike. He was always trying to tell me about it and explain all the rules but I never really understood what he was trying to teach me. I am a visual learner and have to see and watch to understand what is being taught to me. My dad didn’t really understand until I told him to take me to a game so I could learn for myself. One day he came home and told me he had two Cardinals tickets for that night. I was so excited to learn about the game and be a part of something bigger than me for the first time in my life which was Cardinal Nation. On the way to the game my dad was talking my ear off trying to tell me how the game worked, who the good players are and who the bad ones are, just stuff like that. I had

I'm from South County and that kind of stuff wasn't ever really exposed to me at all so I asked my dad what he was doing and he said asking for money he is very poor and needs some help so he handed me a 5-dollar bill and I put it in his cup. The reason I put this in my story is now when I go to the Cardinals games I do that before every game. Now we arrive to the gates and they made us take out everything in our pockets and we had to walk through a metal detector to get in, then handed the older lady our tickets so she could scan them.

So, another inning flies by and each pitch I'm learning more and more about the game not only the rules but who each player is how they stand when they bat and when they field the ball. It was fun watching the game but what was even better was getting closer to my dad and being able to talk about each play and which player was playing that good that day and which player was struggling, it was just another thing we could talk about. The 7th inning came around and everyone stood and "Take me out to the Ball Game" I just fell in love with song and the people dancing and singing every word. After the song was over everyone sat down at the same time you could hear all the seats being sat in. The game resumed and it said the same score 1-0 the rest of them game. I could tell that some fans were losing interest because the game was so slow, but I was not I was so into the game and I tried to learn as much I could and I did. When the game officially ended fireworks went off and they were as loud as could be and I could hear all the players screaming and high fiving it was a great experience all together for not only me but for my father as
