His two favorites are Clemente and Jackie, which I think is great because their legacy goes well beyond the game as well. Definitely a lot of fun - and it’s always great to see people’s reactions when they ask him who his favorite players are.
He's awesome! I was that way at about 8. Read every baseball bio in the kids section at our library. There is so much more now to enjoy with the internet. He'll be a historian by the time he's 10!
