9/11/2001
I was playing Baseball on Doubleday Field...Our game started at 9:00 and ended around 10:15...... 7 innings. Right after the game the managers called us all to home plate. As we stood in a circle around home plate we were told what had happened. There were many guys from the city there and even a couple of NYC firemen.
Surreal.....I immediately went back to my Bed and Breakfast on Chestnut Street and watched all morning long in my uniform. At 2:30 or so I went to the HOF in a daze....Hardly anyone there of course. Took a picture in front with the flag at half mast........the rest is a blur.... overwhelmed...in shock..
