The Heineman family is anticipating a big weekend that begins Friday night in San Francisco, one that will feature a reunion of brothers on a Major League Baseball field, three games between two teams looking to crash MLB's playoff party later this year, and also perhaps the need for a little bail money.
OK, so the need for bail money only comes up in jokes, between former UO baseball star Scott Heineman and his family. But those jokes speak to the range of emotions the Heinemans will experience this week, from excitement to frustration, when Scott's Texas Rangers play at the San Francisco Giants, whose opening day catcher was Scott's older brother, Tyler.
