G'day all from Australia
Hey all i'm new to the forum, looks like there is plenty of discussions going on and look forward to getting amongst it

I've liked baseball for a while and never followed a team or the MLB until i saw a reds game on TV at the start of the season and loved it. Been following every game since then, even crashed the work computers whilst streaming a game.

Cheers

Don't get fired over a Reds game!

But at least then you would be able to claim your fandom over most other people!

Welcome aboard.

I just got back from a roady up the coast for a music festival and have a new found appreciation for the country. Plus it was mid 20's celcius in winter

What part of Melbourne are you from? Ever been to Brighton?

So cool to have an Aussie on this forum who follows the Reds!

Awesome. What part of Melbourne are you from? I just had some friends down recently from Clayton, Frankston and Springvale.

Yup. Josh Kennelly, too. It's a big baseball (and golf) family.
