I grew up in Baltimore. And yes, I am a big sports fan, especially when it comes to my local teams.

I'm an everything Baltimore fan.

My dad said to me growing up: 'When all is said and done, if you can count all your true friends on one hand, you're a lucky man.'

I am a lefty, though I bat right-handed... When I was a kid I pitched, played first, outfield and shortstop as well. Now it's mainly softball with some friends.
