That was kind of tough to read, but I'm glad I did. Thanks.

I had a video of that catch, shared by Sham, that I tried to post at the time, but it wouldn't take.



Glad to see the coverage.

Do you know, if I saw Jerry Koosman in Siberia or somewhere odd like that I would recognize him until the day I die

Best to Bud; one of a handful of favorite Mets when I first started drinking the Kool-aid.
