A known baseball fan who just so happened to be the former leader of the free world was at ALCS Game 3, and he was more excited to see someone who wasn't on the field.
Until they're eliminated from the playoffs, the reigning World Series champion Astros are still the kings of baseball. The Astros' victory in Game 3 of the American League Championship Series was in front of a former president.
President Bush said he visited with manager Dusty Baker, who he called "a good man" but was especially excited to meet Dusty's son, Darren Baker. "I was a little nervous," Darren Baker admitted. "It's the president, you know? He said he remembered the play with me getting picked up. He took a picture of just me and him."
