One of my favorite memories of my Dad...1961 All Star Game,Fenway Park.I was a young kid; we had box seats,first base side.Hot summer day (that turned ugly,resulting in the game being called at 1-1).The Red Sox had a rookie pitching sensation named Don Schwall who made the team.Musial comes up against Schwall...count 3-0.Then he starts fouling off pitch after pitch,it seemed to be about a dozen.My Dad leans over to me and says...and I remember his *exact* words.."you watch,Musial's just toying with this kid".Next pitch,Schwall strikes him out.Fenway went wild! And my Dad was no longer infallible!
