I've been a baseball fan all my life - 28 years. Seriously, I went home from the hospital in a Mets uniform.

My love affair with baseball has been a long and arduous journey throughout my life. We’ve had our ups and downs, known true joy and utter despair. No matter how many times my heart gets broken, every spring my hope is renewed and I believe again. In the 40 year old pitcher throwing his first and last no hitter, in the rookie getting on base with his first at bat or the catcher who hangs in there for 15 innings because he has the best view in the house and doesn't want to miss a second of it.

Every spring, I fall in love all over again. I believe in something, in magic; I can escape from reality for 9 innings. This year was different. It wasn't something rote or standard background noise. This year baseball seduced me. I laughed, I cried, I got my heart broken. Watching 3 games a day certainly takes a toll on you, but now that it’s over I miss staying up to watch the west coast games. 162 games… it’s never enough but one day spent loving this game is worth more than all my other ones without it.

Farewell my love, until next year.

P.S. 104 days until Pitchers & Catchers report
