Two things happened in the spring of 1989, just a few weeks apart as a matter of fact.
April 3, 1989… Opening Day of the Major League Baseball season. This was the day I became obsessed with sports, aided by a young Ken Griffey Jr. and these things called baseball cards.
May 5, 1989… the movie Field of Dreams opens. Now everyone is a baseball fan.
And Griffey? Still doing things. Still around to have a catch with the old man.
Kudos to the folks at the “real” Field of Dreams for setting that up for us to see last night.
