Good man, straight shooter even then , baseball practise, summer 52, pitcher Brooks in the interest of helping me curry favor with coach what's hisname, fed me a fast ball right down the middle to die for. it went about 380 ft. and is considered to be my sole positive contribution to baseball. Perhaps he took exception to my left leaning attempt to switch hit? rest in peace good Bud, my 2 topgun trophys(6 50cal.) ! I dedicate to your Faith!!!
