I think around 2014 or so I sent a letter to him in care of the Phillies asking if he had any plans on coming up to any games in Lehigh Valley (Phillies AAA), because I had wanted a signed copy of his autobiography, as well as to just shake his hand (also expressed my condolences for the loss of his granddaughter).
About a week or so later, I received a package from him which included his biography (signed/inscribed) and he included a nice note letting me know that while he had no set plans on coming up to the Lehigh Valley, he thanked me for my thoughts.
