'MY HUSBAND and I grew up in Philadelphia, but have lived in Richmond, VA for 26 years . . . On a day-to-day basis, we don't run into many baseball fans down here, but when we do run into a Phillies fan we react with high-fives, and big excited grins to the puzzlement of passers-by. Strangers becoming instant friends over baseball."
