Great Feller story.
I wish he'd been doing that when I saw him in 74 or 75. I'd have loved to try a swing or two. I wonder of he'd have eased up a bit for a 12 year old? He was pitching a home run derby between games of a doubleheader. And sitting in the stands signing for a bit of the second game. I didn't get to hit, but I did get to talk baseball for an inning or so since all the adults were watching the game and drinking and the kids just wanted the paper the autos were on for paper planes. Bob Feller was really great, I wonder how many hall of famers would have spent any time with a 12 year old whose baseball skills wer sorely lacking. I learned a lot about pitching that day. Steve B
