I remember my first Yankee Game. Our Cub Scout Troop made the trip and were seated in the left field bleachers. The grass was sooo green! There were alot of balls hit to us during batting practice. I came close to getting one of those souvenirs but alas.....

In college I dated a girl from Upper Montclair. I picked her up at her house and she was late dressing so I was ushered into the Sitting Room to wait. Her Dad introduced me to their dinner guests. Mr and Mrs Berra and their friends Mr & Mrs Rizzuto. I said Hello and thanked them for that wonderful bowling alley.

Phil Rizutto was a little before my time, didn't he play shortstop or second base.

I never have been a huge baseball fan, but my Father certainly was. I remember he would fall asleep on worknights with the radio on, listening to the ballgame.

I still have my first baseball glove that he gave me in 1962: it's a Phil Rizutto Signature model.
