Re: Matty in Santa Clarita
Just returned home from seeing "Matty." I met Joshua from the board
which was neat as we got to talk a little vintage baseball cards. About
the show. It ran about 2.5 hours and was a real treat for any vintage
baseball fan. Eddie Frierson has perfected portraying Christy Mathewson -
props, uniforms and all. Frierson did a fine job incorporating a number of
famous Mathewson quotes and Mathewson baseball stories as well. The
show was divided into two parts; the first was his playing days. The second
half was mostly devoted to his post playing days. The attached photo was
Matty telling the moving story of his youngest brothers' death. After the
show I spoke to Mr. Frierson who was very down to Earth. He said there will
be more shows later this year with dates being posted on his website. Overall,
it was a great time. I highly recommend all board members to see it if comes to your area!
