Exclamation Larry Mahnken's Bad News

Many know Larry Mahnken from his award winning blog - or from his postings at Baseball Think Factory and the like.

Well, in case you missed it mentioned elsewhere on the 'net, his apartment in Rochester, New York, caught fire yesterday and he's lost his home and everything in it.

I share this in case anyone is interesting in helping him out in a time like this - you can go to his blog and make a PayPal donation there which I am sure he would put to great use. The URL is http://www.yankeefan.blogspot.com/

Man, this is baseball. You gotta stop thinking. Just have fun.

I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

Have you read The Baseball Same Game?

Damn...

I have friends in the area, and I should be heading up that way in a couple of weeks.

Better drop 'im a line

That really stinks. Bad timing at that. Anyone who has experienced a Rochester winter knows what I'm talking about

I grew up there. My family and my wife's family are all in Rochester. Of course, winters are worse where I live now.

Not that there is a good time to lose everything in a fire, but this is probably the worst time of year. Just horrible.
