Mothers have special memories of sons and baseball too. One Mother's Day many years ago, my son, the ace pitcher on his Little League team (to all of our surprise), was enveloped by his teammates after saving the game. I was ill and almost didn't attend. What I would have missed.
Now I know who I'm rooting for in the HR Derby.
Me, too. My son and I were at Ben Rice's three-homer game in 2024. It's impossible not to root for the guy - and for Dad to throw strikes.

So great you were there to see it.
Not a Yankees fan, but I can be a Ben Rice fan. Thanks for bringing him to our attention, Wayne.
It would be hard not to root for Ben Rice! How lucky you and Sean are to have seen him hit those three homers in 2024.
