How became involved with vintage base ball:
Back in 2007, my brother,
Rich "Lefty" Mueller told me about the Cream Citys team and that they were considering
adding another local team. We played for the Cream Citys team at a match that
summer, and I enjoyed playing with older gents as well as the younger. I used to play for softball teams and after
years of coaching soccer and basketball for my 4 kids, thought it would be fun
to get back on the field again. Also, my brother and I have great memories of
endless boyhood games of "strikeout" and being "Knotholders" sitting in the
bleachers at County Stadium watching the Milwaukee Braves play. The "vintage rules" are quite an adjustment
from modern day baseball, especially the 90 ft. base paths. I am enjoying reviving the traditions of a
vintage era gone by and happy to be a "Gray."
