I do remember that night watching it with my daddy! How I do miss him!

Thanks, agentgray.

I do enjoy baseball; I remember the goosebumps I got when McGuire hit his big HR. Big moments in baseball seem to be more “special” when they happen. Maybe it’s because they don’t happen often; or at least, it seems that way.

As far as formulating memories with my own kids, my oldest has already told me that she’ll never forget watching the Bucks win the big one in 2002… we were in this tiny hotel room in Orlando (visiting Wally World), and watching it on a small television, all of us going berzerk when double-OT expired.

Maybe we’ll have another special moment this year with Pujols? Here’s hoping.

This is the best baseball memory I’ve read in a long time. I grew up a Cardinals fan (still am), but I remember my father calling me into the living room to watch this moment.

Being a baseball fan I can truly understand what this means. It was the same thing when I knew that my grandfather and dad were there to see McGuire break the homerun record.

It’s too bad that baseball is not for you, but, yeah, formulate a memory that you can share with your own kids.
