Re: My Day With My Baseball Hero, Don Mattingly
Mike,
Outstanding story! Thanks for sharing. Mattingly reminds me a little of Dale Murphy, my childhood hero. I've met Murph a few times over the years and he's always first class, sort of like everything I've ever heard about Mattingly.

Re: My Day With My Baseball Hero, Don Mattingly
George,
I picked up the game used batting gloves last week. I was afraid he wasn't going to sign them based on one of my phone conversations with a worker from the event. But, he didn't even bat an eye. I had to pay $20 extra for Donnie to sign the jersey ($50 vs. $30), but it was worth it. I'm trying to convince my wife for me to go again next year. Let me know if you're up for it. It would be cool for you to bring your LVS 1728...it would strike up a good conversation.
