For as long as I can remember, I've always loved baseball. I grew up watching the Houston Astros play in the Astrodome and later in Minute Maid Park. I'm a die hard Astros fan and joined the Fan Sided family in November 2011 to cover my favorite team on ClimbingTalsHill.com. I am now covering all of MLB for CallToThePen.com. I can talk MLB, NFL, NBA and WWE wrestling all day. Get at me on twitter!
