Los Angeles Angels manager Mike Scioscia won his second American League Manager of the Year Award. Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire finished second in the voting…again.

Both managers deserved this award, but there can only be one winner.

There comes a time when most of us realize we’re not going to make the Major Leagues. Some of us might try softball as a replacement, but we soon find out that it doesn’t match the excitement of baseball. So we return to the ‘home version’ that we grew up playing in our backyard — wiffleball.

Watching the MLB playoffs, I’m reminded of these childhood times, and wonder if that’s how my interest in wiffleball was formed. Back then, I looked up to players like Mike Scioscia (left), and although I’m a lot taller now, I look up to him even more.
