David, maybe you played ball with my grandfather? I've summed up a few days where he mentions playing ball with your company (F) in 1944
Florentino Diary:

Play ball with F. Co. Score 19 – 11
Sunday April 23, 1944

in favor of us.
Wednesday, April 26, 1944
Morning went back to rock quarry till noon and came back in for shots on arm and short arm inspection. After that play ball, but quit early because a rifle grenade burst close to the diamond. It was from 3rd Division troops practicing for push.
