always a great guy at the Stadium. I Have been honored to chat with him many of times.

The foul ball I caught off of Lenny Dykstra's bat that Fernando threw...Then signed by the guy I was sitting a couple seats away from, Don Newcombe

Seemed like the right thing to do at the time but I was a little hammered as I recall.

Good place for the ball to sit today out of respect for the man.

I was a Newk fan and I’m loving this thread. But I’m on my cell phone and it’s next to impossible to post my 51 Bowman here.
