I've thought many times of a Lazy Sunday Brunch Fill'd mid~day
At the Mathewson/McGraw home.
Sitting at the Kitchen Table wit them all, Wive's present of course!
After a fun fill'd Saturday Nite & in between games...

I'm certain the conversation would be a wonderful arena

DiMaggio. All class, super stardom. Find out a few things about Marilyn. I think that would be an interesting conversation.

Rube Waddell.

Known to occasionally miss a scheduled start because he was off fishing or playing marbles with street urchins, Waddell might disappear for days during spring training, only to be found leading a parade down the main street of Jacksonville, Florida, or wrestling an alligator in a nearby lagoon.

That is a guy to drink with...

Ages ago I was with United Airlines. At this point down at Miami International – counter, gates, ramp, etc. Long story short – I got a call to escort a genteman over to the Red Carpet Club. Didn't realize until I walked up that it was DiMaggio. Nice gentleman, quiet/reserved. I had a myriad of questions going through my mind but did not ask. I guess I wanted to respect his time and privacy .. part of me was also worried I'd say something stupid like about Marilyn or Mr. Coffee ads, etc. Funny, of all things, those dopey thoughts came into my mind in the moment. So, I escorted him to the club, asked him if he needed anything else ("no, thank you" .. you could tell he wanted a quiet place to sit, read the paper and not be bothered), thanked him for his business and that was it.

If I could go back and do it all over again and I knew he would be open to the conversation – I would ask him about the game in his day. His thoughts on how it has changed/evolved over time - what he likes/doesn't like ( .. I would imagine the DH would come up as a dislike) Which game stands out to him as most memorable and why? Toughest pitcher he ever faced and why? What would he do if he were commissioner? Things like that.

Mark Fidrych

As a high school ballplayer and Tiger fan of the mid / late 70s I, and much of the nation, was captivated by him. By all accounts he was a real down to earth guy. I would love to pound a few and shoot the shit with him.
