One University of Louisville baseball fan with a vested interest in the success of the Cardinals is Bob Whiting. He’s spending as much time in Louisville these days as he does in his hometown of New Wilmington, Penn.

Bob and his wife, Susan, have had four children participating in UofL athletic program over the past several years, including Sutton Whiting, who currently plays second base for the baseball team. Sutton was preceded by his older brother, Boomer, who played outfield in the 2007 College World Series.

His daughters, Molly and Addy, have been members of the UofL Ladybirds, a team that also competes for national honors on an annual basis.

Bob was situated on the party deck on the first base side during Sunday’s game between UofL and Cal State Fullerton.
