This year's annual pilgrimage to "The Birthplace of Baseball" in upstate New York yielded a couple of surprises. First, a visit to the Hall of Fame's bookstore revealed the last two copies of The Kid From Dodgertown from the big box of books I'd provided at my speaking engagement and signing in 2023. (Its always a thrill to see your book displayed amongst those of some really terrific writers). Then, the next day at breakfast I met a guy in the wonderfully tiny (28 seats) Cooperstown Diner named Paul Sagnelli, a Vietnam veteran and former NYPD detective who was there with his family to soak in Cooperstown's baseball aura. In our conversation I mentioned the book, and he couldn't wait to get to the Hall and secure one of those last copies. And when this true American hero asked to take a photo with me outside the diner, I was honored to do so. See you next year!
