I was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA and have been a Phillies fan for all of my life.? The Florida Marlins are a division rival which means that I don’t particularly care for them.
Despite my feelings for the Marlins, here is a really neat story about their 80 year-old manager, Jack McKeon.? It’s pretty hard not to like someone who attends daily Mass and has a devotion to St. Therese.? And come to think of it, I guess it could be worse…
He could be the manager of the Mets 🙂
