Since we're in a layoff before Duke's next game, I thought it might be fun to see who DBR folks root for in Major League baseball and how they became fans of their team.

I'll go first.
I'm a St. Louis Cardinal fan and I began rooting for the Cards back in the Stan The Man Musial days. The main reason for rooting for them was because the Cardinals had a minor league team in Winston Salem. They were called the Winston Salem Redbirds. I got to see Vinegar Ben Mizell, Curt Flood and several more players that went on to play in the majors.

Well, I guess we'll see how this goes.

GoDuke and GoRedbirds!
ps: I'm looking forward to see how Jim Sumner became a Yankee fan.
