Greg--
Congratulations, and for many of the things that mean a lot to me, too, including Beethoven. I would attend, but May 18 is my birthday and I'm celebrating it at the Phillies-Reds game with my wife and another friend, also born May 18. Have a wonderful event in Cooperstown! Cheers, Mike

Greg:
Congratulations on this achievement! Also, if we ever meet, I'd love to discuss Beethoven's 9th with you. I've performed it both in the choir and as a soloist, and it is my favorite musical work. I could go on and on about it, and am now going to re-listen to my version with Karajan conducting!

I am in Berlin now visiting daughter and grandson...just today visited Beethoven's statue in the Tiergarten...one of the major segments in the film, and chapter in our book, focuses on a young East Berlin woman growing up in the '70 and '80s and Bernstein coming to Berlin to play the 9th as the Wall came down....

Wow to all of this! Greg, I was given your book years ago by a girlfriend after my first summer as a my nephews Little League coach. I've read more books related to baseball in some way than I'll ever recall. Yours I remember- It hit so close to home and the laughs were many. Great work and congrats on your recent endeavor as well as being honored at the Hall.

Thanks, appreciate that. Four years after the season in that book I took a Little League team team to the state finals, the first in our area to do that. More laughs: We lost to a team whose star turned out to be UNDER age, and were later dropped from the tourney. My son made team was decided not to play to go to a summer film camp. Good move--he's now in L.A. and doing great in film/game industry....So ya never know...
