My dad and I had to pass each other condolences after the Kansas City Royals lost 19-1 to the Minnesota Twins on Monday. My parents had the misfortune of choosing that evening to go to the ballpark. This is what bonds fathers and sons in America: the shared joys and sufferings of baseball. Somewhere a man and a boy marveled at Joe Mauer's 5-hit, 7-RBI performance. We shrugged our shoulders and remembered that the Royals haven't enjoyed a winning season since 2003.
A love for baseball must be instilled in a child early. The video below salutes fathers committed to raising their kids right.
