A Dash of Ethnic Pride

Sean Green - a Met who wrote a book on Zen Ike Davis - traded (damn it) to Pittsburgh As an aging Met fan and a somewhat observant Jew I take pride in their accomplishments Played a little while in the LL A catcher! I have also attended Mets games at the old Shea Stadium Where we held up signs saying "Joan Payson is a prostitute" I now see how the troubled days of my youth started But even on the worst days I still had my copy of Frank Waldman's "Bonus Pitcher" and was able to hear the announcer say "Put it in the books"!
