Welcome to Blocking The Plate!

Part of being a HUGE baseball fan is dedication.  I’ve been to over 90 ballparks, including all 30 Major League parks.  I’ve been to the All Star Game, I’ve been to a few World Series, I’ve been to Spring Training, and the World Baseball Classic.  I’ve even played at Fenway Park.  (Four times.)  I love the game. 

Getting out to other parks is awesome because you see a different point of view in every ballpark.  The fans, the atmosphere, and the food.  It’s all so different on the road.  I love it!

Food is a big part of every ballpark experience.  Every city has its signature flavor or specialty.  I’ll talk a lot about that here, along with MLB insight, news, and reactions.  There are a ton of sites out there, so I’ll try to keep it fresh! 

This site is primarily baseball, but you will see Washington State University posts on here (Go Cougs!) along with some other stuff.  Other stuff?  Great, I know, but I’ll try to make that interesting too.

Step up to the plate and let’s “Play Ball!”
