Crystal McKenzie is a life-long Cardinals fan from St. Louis. Even though she grew up in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, she remained loyal to St. Louis thanks to her family’s roots. Crystal shares how watching Nolan Ryan pitch in person ignited her passion for baseball and how the 1998 home run chase pulled her deeper into the game.
Now, as a mom, Crystal is on a mission to visit all 30 MLB ballparks with her family, sharing the magic of the game and teaching her daughters to love it just as much as she does. We dive into her favorite baseball memories, the joy of scoring games with her kids, and how baseball has become an incredible family tradition.
