Brief BIB Biographies
Mark grew up and continues to live in the Bay Area--he has the luxury of having the A's and Giants very close by. Mark is more of an A's fan because he was in high school during the heyday of the Charley Finley A's with their handlebar mustaches and their early 70's World Series runs, and those A's stay near and dear to his heart. He did manage to score tickets to three games for the inaugural season at PacBell Park, the only BIBer with that ballpark in his tally. He has a horrendous commute into Silicon Valley, and needs these annual treks to maintain his sanity. Mark is the BIB Webmaster.
Scott grew up in San Diego religiously following the losing Padres through their "lean" years. Sometime around the Padre's first World Series appearance in 1984, Scott's interest in baseball went from healthy hobby to freakish obsession. He worships Kevin Costner in Field of Dreams and started this crazy idea of seeing all the Major League ballparks. After a slow start in the early 1990's because of a demonic ex-wife, he's finally won his freedom to pursue his dream without guilt. Not surprisingly, Scott derives as much pleasure planning the trips in intricate detail as he does actually going on the annual excursions.
Kevin hails from the birthplace of professional baseball, Cincinnati. He believes that Peter Edward Rose belongs in the the Hall of Fame and that Marge Schott should be. He surely holds some sort of record my having garnered 32 major league signatures on one baseball, including one inappropriately placed in the "manager's only" space across from the National League seal that prompted Tommy Lasorda to drop the F-bomb. Kevin leads the brethren in procuring seats for sold-out games within ten rows of the field.
Gerry is the "cheesehead" connection, a lifelong resident of the great State of Wisconsin. Go Packers, Badgers, Brewers, Bucks and Marquette!!!! No small market whining here. New Miller Park finally brightens the Brewer prospects. It's been a long time since Yount, Molitor and Gantner led the BrewCrew to a World Series trip in '82. How can you not like a guy that grew up eating all those brats with the special stadium sauce! Two appearances in high school baseball State Championship games (2nd place -
story of his life!) cause him to live vicariously through the BIBs and his 3 sons. Every trip with the BIBs is a Field of Dreams and deja vu all over again!!! They are 1st place kind of guys - sometimes!
