Default Ever talk to a ballplayer ?

Posted By: jay behrens

I've been very lucky over the years to have had conversations with a number of major leaguers. I got to go to dinner with DiMaggio. I was told that any talk about Marilyn was forbidden, which didn't bother me. I wanted to talk baseball. I also got to go to dinner with HArmon Killebrew and Leon Day. Both great guys. When I got out of the hobby in 1991, Killebrew bought a number of wire photos that pictured him with Cal Emer. I've also been able to talk to numberous players when set up at various shows. I can't say I ever had a bad exeperience with any of them. Even Steve Carlton was very pleasant.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
