I also shopped with my parents at the Sears Surplus store near Almeda. That strip center has changed a good bit over the years. If I remember right, there was a Woolco in the same center in the 70's.......
My brother and I played there in the 70's. I want to say 73-77 somwhere around there. I think the name of the League was Freeway American. I remember a "FA" on my hat. I remember getting sucide cokes after the games and buying baseball cards. I also still have many of the 1975 Topps cards from then. I still have a team photo at home somewhere. I drove by the park about a year or so ago. There was nothing left but scraps. Very sad.
