What a perfect night for such an event!
The weather was perfect--low 70's with a slight breeze. It was
September, that time of year when the magic of baseball comes to life.
Sitting there listening to one of the
game's kindest and most respected men stumble past the part of his
speech where he remembered his late father while music from the Field
Of Dreams soundtrack played softly in the background was enough to
make your eyes well up with tears.
What a fantastic career; what a great
man; what a night for everything baseball has to offer. |
