Didn’t the untimely death of Heinz give us the Harris Throckmorton Wofford the 3rd ?

LOL ........ I think so.

From Wiki:

"Harris Llewellyn (Throckmorton) Wofford was born in 1926 in Manhattan, New York City, the son of Estelle Allison (née Gardner) and Harris Llewellyn Wofford. He was born to a wealthy and prominent Southern family."

"At age 11 he accompanied his widowed grandmother on a six-month world tour. They spent Christmas Eve in Bethlehem, visited Shanghai shortly after the Imperial Japanese Army captured it, spent time in India where Wofford became "fascinated" by Mahatma Gandhi and visited Rome, where they saw Benito Mussolini announce Italy's withdrawal from the League of Nations and a subsequent fascist parade."

"While attending Scarsdale High School, he was inspired by Clarence Streit's plea for a world government to found the Student Federalists. By the time he was 18, the organization had grown so large that Newsweek predicted he would become President." (Belated barf alert)

Last night's thumping of the Phillies is more like it. Now .... play a great September and you can pull off something beautiful over there in Flushing.

Good luck, good sir.
