Default Hi Jeff---

Just saw your post.

The main thing I recall from that final day was the massive media coverage from all over the world. They closed off several sections of seating just to have a place for the media to set up. ----and then it was over in about 10 minutes or so as Pawtucket scored in it's first atbat! There was chaos on the field as the media descended to interview players & head for the locker rooms!

National columnist & author Dan Barry of the NY Times previously worked under my sister at the Providence Journal before going to NY. He wrote this book on the historic 33 inning game this past yr. and it's now a nice companion piece to my Press Pass from that game.

Showing the cover & real nice personal inscription page:
