Default Ever talk to a ballplayer ?

Posted By: Mike Ernst

Sat next to and talked with Matt Nokes on a plane from San Diego to Detroit. Performed Jaime Navarro's wedding with Mike Fetters as best man. Baptized Navarro's son with Fetters and Ryne Sandberg as godparents (along with their wives). Was a teammate of Doug Bair in semipro ball for two years before he pitched 15 years in the bigs. Bill Schroeder and his family are members of my church. Did Rollie Fingers' first wife's 4th wedding. Used to visit Carl Mays' widow when she was in a nursing home. Guess I've been pretty lucky.
