Who am I?

Great question. First off, my name is Tim Rabolt and I am a 17-year old high school student enrolled at the Tatnall School in Wilmington, DE. As a high school student, 'Who am I?' is a question I try to answer now and throughout college. I know that I love baseball and have always liked Philadelphia, which is how I became so devoted to the Phillies. I started following them about 5 years ago thanks to a family friend. I am now a season ticket holder and rarely miss a game. As of late, baseball has taken over my life through the Phillies, my high school team, and now, this blog. Enjoy!

But before you are quick to judge the 35-year old Venezuelan, perhaps you should consider a little about his baseball background.
