Do you play in the streets of TV? Or a parking lot? Must be hard to hit the ball with a broom stick?

When I was 9 we had a large back yard where we were living. I had a baseball diamond set up on the back lawn using real bases. I had a baseball-themed 9th birthday party with enough kids for two teams...and hot dogs, of course.
