Seeing as how Mickey Mantle was my by far favorite player, I’ll never forget how Bouton wrote that you knew you had it made with the Yankees when Mantle, Ford and Richardson invited you to the roof of the Watergate Hotel in DC to look through Mantle’s telescope into the windows of the hotel across the way...
Close. It was the Shoreham Hotel in DC.
I stayed in Trumps hotel on Columbus Circle, circa 2003. The room had a telescope in it. How many people rent hotel rooms to look at stars?
