About This Item

Traveling Vicariously

This was a baseball that I got from a Major League game in Baltimore in 1985 (or so) from former Baltimore Oriole pitcher Sammy Stewart. He rolled it over the dugout after warmups and pretty much had me on cloud nine for about a month after the fact. I have never seen it as a "collectible" - just a sentimental reminder of a time when athletes made less than a couple million bucks a year...

Will be going to see the Padres and Expos next week at QUALCOMM STADIUM, SAN DIEGO!

  • VB heading to the game Having travelled far to support a team that is not having a good season, VB nears the QualComm Stadium in San Diego, CA.
  • VB finds a seat After stopping by the much-better-than-the-Metrodome food facilities of QualComm and snagging a bag of Cracker Jacks, VB settles in for the game (Expos at Padres)
  • VB gets clocked! VB is pleasantly surprised to receive a commemorative clock at the game, marking the stadium's 1969-2003 stand as home of the Padres.
