Default Earliest Memory Of Baseball

Posted By: John Kalafarski

My Dad took me to Fenway in either 1950 or '51 (I was born in '45) and took me to the left field corner, lifted me up against the rail; I waved to Ted Williams and he waved back. I remember going to the store (Harry and Rosie's in Providence) to buy '51 Topps. I remember kids had Ruth Goudeys in their stack of pitching cards as we used to call them. I remember going to the movies across the street and Ted would have a small clip talking about the Jimmy Fund.
