All I can say is that I was alive when I first collected this Stelmaszek card in 1975.

Brian (strange thing is, this is not my card)

Last of the fifties…

I’ll be 60 on my next birthday since I turned 59 on my last one.
I think that’s how it works…

Ken and I entered the world on the same day 58 years ago. He had more money, more talent, and unfortunately more demons. I was in Peoria for Spring training in 1996. I was watching the Mariners play his Padres. He had a brutal game. He made three errors in 4 innings. There was an obnoxious drunk seated in front of me who was loudly booing and mocking Caminiti who was noticeably perturbed. As he left the field in the bottom of the 4th he was scanning the stands. A couple innings later he was walking through the stands wearing sunglasses and a Hawaiian shirt. He was headed in our direction. Ken was a VERY large man. He found the heckler and sat down next to him for an inning. He spoke very quietly so I have no idea what he said. Whatever it was it had the desired effect as the drunk was rather subdued for the rest of the game. Caminiti stood in front of our section signing autographs for the next 30 minutes. Ken made some bad life choices as we all do and he paid the ultimate price. I have been fortunate to outlive my own mistakes.

Bringing up the average. 74 is a lot different than 64!

Leading-edge boomer at 75. This hobby has been one of the really fun things in my life, among many, and I feel lucky to have ridden the wave. Also great to see that it's not just my cohort, but clearly younger people of all ages share the same attraction to this stuff.
