Jeff DrumI have been lucky enough to spend time with a few. Most notably was Pirate/Red outfielder Jerry Lynch who used to be the starter at the golf course where I play every Saturday morning. What a great guy who would tell us about batting against Koufax/Drysdale and what it was like to be Roberto Clemente's teammate. Friendliest guy you would ever want to meet.
Spent several hours last fall with Red/Brave/Pirates outfielder Frank Thomas. He was doing a charity signing for Toys for Tots in the Atlanta area and reallly took a shine to my five year old son. Great fellow also.
