Default Marrero Legacy

Although most members of this forum already receive Old Cardboard magazine and the monthly eNewsletter, I wanted to bring our February eNewsletter to your attention in case you are one of the few who do not.

eNews #82 (February 2011) includes a mini-article about Connie Marrero--now the oldest living Major League player. The issue can be viewed at http://www.oldcardboard.com/eNews/20...82/eNews82.htm.

I had the honor of being part of a group that met with Marrero earlier this month in Havana to help celebrate his 100th birthday. It was a really great celebration in which I was able to record a few video clips. The clips are posted on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1jtOyLiSPI.

Hope you enjoy the video as much as we enjoyed celebrating the event.

Lyman

PS: In case you do not already receive the free monthly eNews, just send me an email (editor@oldcardboard.com) with your contact info and we will be happy to add you to the distribution list. --LJH

Saw that video in my EM. Really enjoyed it & it must have been a real thrill for you too! GREAT job!

Connie had a little trouble remembering Lopat's name, but as soon as you asked the question his left hand went up & he made that little "junk curve" motion---He remembered!
