A's reliever Sean Doolittle has had no trouble filling his days since the season ended. He and his girlfriend, Eireann, have spent time traveling to see their families and are now prepared to enjoy the Christmas season at their home in Arizona.
Doolittle recently caught up with MLB.com to share his holiday favorites and memories.
Doolittle: I don't have one in particular, but when we were kids, we'd have the tradition where, my brother and I shared a room and my sister's room was right across the hall, so the three of us would get up early and go wake up mom and dad and then sit at the top of the stairs.
