I am going to guess many of you have read Pat Jordan"s interview with Tom Seaver 12/13. I just stumbled on to it. Totally fascinating chat by two friends about life and baseball.

No doubt where Tom stands on pitch counts and pitching changes.

My dad and I always loved his laugh :) His "evil cackle"!

I really love this article. Tom was not my favorite early 70's Met, but I have always had such respect for him. I love how human this makes him seem. That Sarah had Hodgkin's breaks my heart. I hope she's okay. If I can find a certain picture of Tom, Nancy and Sarah, I will post it here. Nancy, of course, is my idol.

Sarah, Nancy, Tom, and Anne, Cooperstown, 1992.

I remember when Sarah was born....

The picture I remember is a robust blond toddler on the front of Parade. Can't find it but it was early 70's. She can't be more than 10 years younger than me. I loved the Seavers.

Got to get my hands on that magazine. It looks to be a WW treasure trove.

That's the one! Isn't she adorable?

Incredibly :)
