If you're old enough, you may remember the great Cincinnati Reds teams of the 1970s. Led by the likes of Joe Morgan, Johnny Bench, Tony Perez and Pete Rose, The Big Red Machine made four trips to the World Series ('70, '72, '75, '76) and fell short in two other seasons in which they made the NLCS (73, 79). With so many playoff appearances in a short period of time, it must have been easy for Reds fans to take those special years for granted.

Having lived in Houston, Texas, for the past decade, I have slowly developed a bond with our very own Houston Astros. I became a fully committed fan of the Astros, after their 2005 playoff run; which resulted in a World Series loss to the Chicago White Sox. The Astros spring training home games are held in Kissimmee FL. These games are the best opportunities to get closer to the players on the Astros roster. Fans also get to meet up and coming prospects, some of whom might even end up making the team.

Major League Baseball in Florida It's not quite spring yet but baseball players and fans are ready for the annual preseason practices and exhibition games in Florida. Out of all the professional sports that we as Americans enjoy I have always favored baseball.

Overview Spring is a short couple of months around the corner, which means that baseball is almost ready to revisit us. To many people the day that pitchers and catchers arrive is the day that spring starts. This is why baseball is an American pastime. That said, we will be visiting the New York Yankees spring training program and schedule for the 2011 season. Why the New York Yankees? They are my favorite team because of the legacy that they have forged not only in baseball, but in America.
