Just a little follow up on Mike Sandlock. The Dodgers had picked up the story that John And I had Done for the pirates blog on Mr Sandlock and the Dodgers are going to honor Mike Next Saturday I believe 7/ 21/12 at Citi Field when the Dodgers play the Mets by having him throw out the first pitch on National Television for the game of the week! Way to go Mike!
At 96 years young!!!

John,
I believe he is just thrilled to death to do it! He should have a great time there!

A few photos of Emilio Navarro throwing out the first ball before a game at Yankee Stadium, September 18, 2008. At the time, he was the oldest living professional baseball player, age 102.
