You get a little too sentimental and you end up crying. Seeing the guys, hearing what they're doing, meeting their wives and family. It was neat. This is really wonderful.

We got up two games to none, but Yom Kippur didn't last long enough.

It was a wonderful experience. It's a really, really warm feeling to see the guys. Sometimes there were 15 guys going out together.

Earl was a great storyteller, and he could tell them both in Spanish and English. He had the biggest personality on the team. That was as close a group of players as I've been around, and Earl probably was the main reason.
