The interesting thing is that it seems like George W. Bush would have been happy being the president of anything. He could have been president of Major League Baseball. ↗

The Florida State League was considered the top A-league back then. You played in the spring training parks of major league teams, traveled throughout some great cities in Florida, and the pay was the best in A-ball. ↗
