L Chadwick Bowman
The author has been a baseball player, coach, umpire, and fan since a young child. Taught by his father the love of the game. A collector of baseball memorabilia. He has a love for the inside of the game as well as the playing of the game. He has been on the field as a player, not a superstar, more like Charlie Brown. His dream as a boy was to walk out on a major league field one day and feel the excitement of being there.
