Pickup game: Reisterstown

Jay Harris, who hosts the Radio Flea Market in Baltimore (for 16 years now), read this morning's column and offered info about a pickup baseball game in Baltimore County: "A group of guys and girls have been playing a choose-up game for about 40 years. The game has changed sights and is now at Randallstown Elementary school. We show up on Sunday morning about 9:30, choose up sides and play. Pitching is anything but slo-pitch. Men & women ages 18-72 participate. The guy who holds it together is Sheldon Hyman 410-655-6168. One of the reasons unorganized games have disappeared is the kids can't get there. When I was growing up, we rode our bikes or walked to the fields. The fields are further away and parents are reluctant to allow kids to get out of their sights."
