PS Demographics: Your Age, and Your Favorite Team?

[KG Erwin]

On June 17 I'll turn 52, and contrary to my BROOKLYN Dodgers avatar, my favorite modern team is the Pittsburgh Pirates.

[Wrathchild]

Happy Birthday! I just turned 41 this year (still feel 18) and grew up in the Finger Lakes of New York, where my favorite team was the legendary New York Yankees. I currently live in Reading, Pennsylvania, where I can mostly get Phillies games, and have become quite a watcher of them. That Raul Ibanez kicks some ass! I'll tell you, it was tough watching the Yankees-Phillies series this year as I didn't really know who to root for, as I barely know any of the current players for New York, being inundated with the World Champion Phillies!

46, Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs & St Louis Cardinals

One of the reasons I'm doing this is to find out how many NL-type guys we have vs AL-types.

As for our ages, I believe that many of us are in the 40-55 age range. We'll see.

I turned 53 on May 22. I lean toward the Cubbies, but my favorite is Major League Baseball !!

I'm 61, in 1956 (or so) I saw Mantle (on TV) hit a very very long home run to deep right center field in old Yankee Stadium. Then Yogi hit one off his shoe tops to right field in the next at bat in the same game. Made me a Yankee fan. Was a Yankee fan until the late 80's. I don't care for todays baseball. To many million dollar cry baby's. I prefer to play 50's & 60's. I do venture back into the 20's on occations.
Now all of you should feel better because you are not the oldest. [;)] [8|]

42

Die Hard Sox Fan.

[Taz0713]

I guess I fall into the expected age category as I am 42. My favorite team is the Cubbies.

[rich12545]

63.  Favorite team is 1963 Dodgers.  Saw Koufax pitch at Dodger Stadium that year.

[HotCornerDave]

I'm 34. I don't really have a favorite major league team anymore, so I'll say the AAA Sacramento River Cats. My wife and I moved to Sacramento a couple years ago where I became a great fan of minor league baseball. My Father's Day gift this year is a trip to the ballpark with my wife and 7 month old daughter. It will be my daughter's first ballgame - first of many, I hope. I'm looking forward to it.

Hi Dave,

Funny you mentioned that you will be taking your daughter to her first baseball game to see the RiverCats. My wife, daughter and I lived in Rocklin for about eight years (we have since moved back up north to Southwest Washington). My daughter's first baseball game was also the RiverCats, although she was about six at the time. Even stranger is that they were playing the Portland Beavers, who now she loves to go see.

I'm from the mid-Hudson River valley in New York. Lifelong Yankees fan, though I lived in Boston for eight years and actually like the Sox as much as it's possible for me to (not head-to-head, of course). I turn 39 soon.

I already mentioned the Yankees. [;)]

Almost 33 and Pirates fan.

Another Bucs fan? Cool. Have you been to PNC Park? I have yet to visit it, but it's on my "bucket list". My last Pirates game was in 1986.

[henry296]

I have been to PNC Park three times, but not for a couple of years.  I live in Charlotte now, so it is difficult to make it to games.
