Default MATTY: An Evening with Christy Mathewson

Has anyone seen this before? It's coming to the Santa Monica Playhouse in late February. A one actor play about Christy Mathewson. It's close to me and tickets are only $20 (which is cheaper than the price of a movie in LA now) but I haven't heard about before even though it looks like it's been around for several years.

I saw it several years ago in Valencia CA, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Now THAT seems like something really cool to go to.

That's what I miss about living in California. Every modern cosmopolitan amenity; no matter what your interests are, it's either there or coming.

The Deadball Committee of SABR when we used to meet at Hot Springs every couple of years was treated to his performance as Matty. It was very moving,
