A kind word, if I may, for Rex Hudler: when he played for The Angels, my pal and I took our sons to “Cap Night”. The boys had it in mind that they would get autographs from the players, on their way out of the park. I told them it wasn’t very likely, but they were insistent. Sure enough, as we waited by the gate to the parking lot, a parade of players in Jaguars, Mercedes, BMWs, etc. roared by, and would have just as soon run the kids over, as stop, and mingle. Suddenly, up pulled a Ford Bronco, the window rolls down, and Rex enthusiastically called out “Hey kids, how ya doin’ ?” He signed for all the children (about 30 of them). This was in the mid 90’s, to this day, we still have the cap that Rex signed :) A good guy.
