I first started becoming a fan when I got some cards from a police officer. They were the older kind when they were bigger than normal baseball cards. It was probably around 1989 or 1990. The only players I knew were the players on those 3 or 4 cards I got. I probably would have become a Brewer fan regardless, but that's probably where it started. I remember asking my dad how baseball is played and pretending to play games out with the cards. Paul Molitor and Jim Gantner were on two of the cards, and Molitor eventually became my favorite player. In my second year in little league (two years later) with my dad managing the team, I got to be on the Brewers. I was so excited and of course I had first pick at jerseys numbers so I took 4. Only problem was that the jerseys were smallest starting with #1 and largest at #15 or whatever it cut off at. I was above average size for my age so that jersey was skin tight on me. I wore it anyways.
