The Man was my idol...when he retired, I became a Mets fan.

Pookie, you must be close to my age. I just passed the half century mark.

I saw Stan the man hit a homer over the "right field porch" at the old Sportsmans Park in 1963. (showing my age, i was maybe 8 at the time).

God love Stan the Man. Still the biggest name in St.Louis.

Carl Erskine?

Have you read his, "Tales From The Dugout"? It's supposed to be very funny and light.
