Jeff made the comment several years ago that he would like to see a baseball game in every Major League baseball park. I think you could call it one of his Bucket List things-to-do. I started planning trips around baseball games and over the last couple of years, we’ve checked off a handful. It’s kind of become a project, and I have made most of these trips with him (Wrigley Field is the exception–he and Darren, a Cubs fan make the Cardinals v. Cubs game a guy thing). Along the way, I seem to have become a baseball fan. I never cared much for the sport as a teen or college kid. It seemed kind of slow. However, as an adult, I’ve come to appreciate it more. So now, I’d almost say this is a joint bucket list item.
Anyway, this weekend, Jeff found a book: _The Baseball Fan’s Bucket List_, written by a father/daughter team. It lists 162 (for the 162 games in the regular MLB season) things that every baseball fan’s should experience. Jeff has found a new goal in life. 
While every item on the list isn’t something that every fan can or wants to do, it’s a great starting place. It includes a game at every MLB park but also includes other goals such as key match-ups–Cardinals v. Cubs, Dodgers v. Giants, Minor League events, coaching a Little League team, owning a piece of baseball memorabilia, etc.
I highly recommend this book to any serious baseball fan and am including a link to it on amazon.com.
