A Little Boy's First Baseball Game

The SportsProf wrote a great piece yesterday about taking his son to his first baseball game. As a father of two small boys, this one touched me.

I'm not really a baseball guy, but you can't deny the father-son connections in baseball. I don't know why it's that way, maybe it's because the pace of the game allows for more bonding. Either way, it makes me wish we had a major league team here that my boys could watch.

I actually took my sons to a Durham Bulls game on Father's Day, but both are still too young to get too much out of it. Considering what the Triangle has to offer (and my wife's allegiances), I'm guessing that our father-son sports bonding is going to happen at UNC basketball games.
