Thank You Mike. Really enjoyed the read. I’ve been contemplating looking into playing again and this just might have been enough to go for it! Looks like a lot of fun and would enjoy the competition and camaraderie too!
Mike – thank you for the beautiful job you did with this story. Close to my heart – love watching my favorite ballplayer still play.
