Re: Don Mincher RIP (1938-2012)
I was at a White Sox/A's game in Chicago in what I think was 1970 with my father when Mincher launched a then rare rooftop home run down the line in right field. I remember saying that he had homered on the roof to my dad and the people around us, only to have one and all assure me that wasn't the case and I didn't know what I was talking about (at the time, I was just short of being 12, and, in my family, kids were always wrong, as far as the adults were concerned).
